Hi everyone!
Hi everyone. I am a nervous newbie to both the forum and to writing. A few months ago I took an English class and my teacher and the other students in my class said I should publish so I am looking for the right forum to help me and in the process I hope I can help someone else get to a publishable point in their writing.  |

You've found the right place. Ignore a troll named Truth Telller and be welcome. If you want to be stroked, you won't find things here. If you want to find a bunch of people who will give you honest criticsm, you will find things here. Toughen up you skin a bit and start posting. You won't regret it.
Welcome!

Welcome to the forum, Cam. For the most part, people on here are genuinely helpful. You'll come to think of this place as a second home.
Sam.

Welcome, Cam. Glad to have you. Every writer needs a good, tough hide, but don't worry, you'll get yours soon enough and be a better person for it. Good luck!
