Hello everyone,

I have been reading and reading on this site for a long time but until now remained silent. It is a bit like my writing which I have done quietly and secretly until relatively recently. What a cold day to find my voice!

Hi misssooky and welcome, glad you've finally emerged from the writerly closet!

Hi Missooky, good to hear your voice!

You're right about cold - I'm living with fingerless gloves on at the moment.

Lovely to hear you I'm also very secretive about my writing - except on here! It's a great place to improve your writing and get honest and helpful feedback, and all standards are welcome, from complete beginning to seasoned published authors.

Just glad to have you along

Hello and welcome!

I completely understand the secrecy thing. I never showed anyone my writing until I joined here. And I didn't tell anyone in "real life" until I was virtually published.

Thank you everyone for such a warm welcome. I am delighted to be part of the forum and a teeny bit relieved that I am not the only secret scribbler in these parts!

I'm sure there are far more secret scribblers than open writers so don't feel isolated. Good to come out though.

Hi misssooky, and thanks for your helpful post in the beginner's group recently. I hope that now you've 'come out' we'll see more of you around the site.

Welcome!
