Lightbulb Greetings from Pennsylvania.

Hello all,
My name is Tom and I suppose you could call me a writer, although I hate using the term because my writing is awful. In fact, I hardly ever have any way to prove that I do write as a hobby because I delete just about everything. I joined this forum because I hope to fix that problem. I'm sixteen and live in Pennsylvania, which is outrageously cold right now!
I've looked through the forum before and I know that there are many good writers here, hopefully a few of you won't mind helping me out, or reading some of my terrible, unorganized mind-vomit that I call writing!

Hi Tom, let me be the first to welcome you to the forums. Stop deleting your stuff! There is nothing written, that can't over time become useful. Hold on to those words, even if all they do is show you how much your writing has evolved.

Rumpole is correct even if he IS from NY. Stop deleting stuff!

And welcome, neighbor. My goodness, I haven't noticed any typos in your thread title...you must have been seeing things.

It appears you are correct, I must be losing it! I guess I shouldn't have drank that school water today...

And the best part is I don't even live in the city, yet our school water has more lead in it than a munitions depot!
