Hello

Well, hello there. As you can tell by my username, my name's David

I'm twenty one currently and from the UK, unpublished though I hope that will change sometime in the future. Currently? Haven't got anywhere near to even having one piece finished as I keep telling myself my work is too poor to be considered so here I am. Rather, I'm never happy with it. Hoping to find some advice on pieces I try to write, maybe give my own out here to people in the hope that it helps.

So errm, here I am. I look forward to sharing pieces of work and reading other people's writing.

Hi David.

One thing that is good to remember:

No first draft ever gets published, so long as you get your idea down on paper through words you are doing fine. You can always go back and change them until you feel they are good enough.

Welcome.

Thanks for the warm welcomes.

I'm sure I'll enjoy the company and looking through the threads, I see that the feedback is quite good as well as the writers themselves here being talented.

Regarding the advice, I appreciate it.
