Hi people, my name is Wade (hence my screenname)
I have actually been patrolling these forums for a few days, but didn't make an introduction because I thought once I got the advice I wanted, I would have no need to return to this site, but now I'm hooked.
This is a great little community that has been built up here.
To give you a basic idea of my writing history; I slept through english class during all of highschool, (passing only due to a warped creativity that set me apart from most)
I had no intention to become a writer, until my final year of school. It was the holidays, and I had no money and nothing to do, so I thought 'hell, I'll start writing a book. That'll kill some time.' But I didn't know how addictive writing can be.
That was over four years ago. I am now deeply obsessed with writing (I am still working on that same book, because it has gone through so many incarnations and am really close to completing it.)
I joined these forums to get advice about my story, and so far have been met with nothing but nice people. I am truly glad that I stumbled onto this site, and I hope I can give as much insight as I receive.
