    Um, hi I guess

    I just joined today, and I suck at introducing myself.
    I'm 18, live in Sweden and I write in my free time - I dream of studying English literature at university in 2 years.

    Thanks a lot

    Oh, can I just ask. How do people put up long works, do you have to put it all in one piece, or do you make a new thread for every chapter or what ?

    Welcome to forums!
    From what I see so far, mostly people just post a new chapter in a new post, nothing seriously organized and no thread for each chapter.
    I may be wrong, I'm also kinda new but that's what I see around.

    I don't see a question, or I would try to answer it. Welcome, though.
    Remember why you like to read, and inundate your writing with your love of story. No great writer ever found reading a chore.

    Thanks everyone. Question's in the second post, I'm not mad, making it up.

    I've been looking around and it's a pretty nice forum. I'm terrified of posting anything of my own just yet though.

    Welcome to the forums,

    If your planning on studying English literature you had better work on some grammar skills.

    E.G.

    "I dream of studying English literature at university in 2 years."

    Oh I'm sorry, I didn't realize that in this forum we check our grammar in every unformal post.
    Nothing seriously wrong with the grammar there?

    Hi Alice, and welcome.

    If you have a post larger than the limit of a single post (which is I think 4K), then just post it in different posts of the same thread. This is what I believe most people do.

    Hope that helps. Glad to have you here.

    TJ

    Thanks TJ. I've been looking around and I think I get it now.

    Thanks Sam, you've said welcome twice now
