Thumbs up Hello Ladies and Gentlemen!

Hi fellow writers,

I was a college sportswriter for my school's newspaper and have done internship for the local paper. Unfortunately, my career never took off as I've been doing various jobs here and there to pay the bills.

Anyways, I'm here to learn how to become more creative with my writing. I'm now more interested in screenplays and novels, so hopefully this forum can broaden my writing ability.

Thank You,
AAI

Welcome, and this is the place to come for encouragement. My only sport was dirt track stock car racing, but my wife is nuts about basketball and football. What kind of sories do you write?

I covered basketball, soccer, and baseball for my college paper. I also covered some little league games for an internship I did awhile back.

Most of the writing are based of the actual competition and event. I'm hoping to be more creative with my work and so far I like a lot of the sections on this board. Hopefully, it'll help me be a better writer overall.
