Hullo guys, really new at this!

Hullo guys, I'm really new to writing, as you can probably tell by the multitudes of grammatical errors I'm bound to make while writing this. I'm only fourteen, living in Naples, Florida.

I've never really enjoyed writing, to be honest, but I for the last year or so I have wanted to write a book about my thoughts concerning issues a college professor would usually write about. The kind of things you think to yourself, but think they're silly, so you don't tell anyone. I would think that people would be interested in reading what a fourteen year old has to say about the world, I don't really know though. I would also like to think that I have come up with some suprising relevations when I think (which is a loooong time), but again, I cannot be sure.

Anyways, hoping to enjoy my expierence of writing all my thoughts down, and hoping to meet some nice people here. Also would like to pick up enough from you guys that my writing isnt totally uncomprehendable!

Welcome to the forums. As far as I could tell there were very few grammatical errors in there. Anyways, I hope you enjoy it here, and if you have any problems feel free to contact myself or another mentor.

Welcome CrispyChicken, I wish that I could say I've been writing since I was fourteen. You'll get a lot of experience under your belt and a lot of great advice from this forum. Have fun!
