Hi

Hi, I'm Rolo and I like to write short stories and free poetry.
(excuse the rather succint intro, I noticed it looked like an AA introductory speech, but I didn't know what else to put here)

Welcome to the forums, Rolo. I am hopeless when it comes to poetry, but I would read a short story if you posted one.

I hope you enjoy your time here. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Allow me to apoligise in advance for the high probability that I will read your work if you post it in the Poetry forum. I'm sure there's some more you could say. Favourite authors, favourite music, favourite film?

In any case, be welcome.

Welcome to the forums Rolo. =]

I would just like to say that you have a VERY creepy avatar. I have a thing about eyeballs.

Welcome Rolo,

I am Nae, I have been addicted to poetry all my life (sorry couldn't resist, but first step to recovery is admittance, right?).

Hope you like it here.
Nae

Welcome to the forums Rolo. I don't spend a lot of time in the poetry forum, but I look forward to seeing some of your short stories. If you post in the Critique & Advice section, you may get more feedback on your work since everyone will know that is what your looking for. Hope you enjoy yourself. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.

Thanks for the warm welcome.
So...a bit more info about myself, then.
My favorite authors would have to be Camus and Kafka.
My favorite band is Tool(which incidentally is where my creepy avatar comes from, as it is the cover of one of their albums).
About my favorite movies, I'd have to say Waking life and Pulp Fiction.
My favorite food is steak and my favorite sport is what you call soccer, but we call football.

I submitted a short story a second ago, hope you like it.

Hi Rolo! I must say I love poetry and short stories and I can't wait to see you post some of yours. The only thing I find more inspiring than writing poetry myself is to read poetry by others, and to draw meaning from it.
