Afternoon to you all. I am Brian (though my family nickname is Bär Chi), an aspiring author from Florida. I have arrived here hoping to build relationships and gain perspective on my sense of world-building, character design and hopefully find myself inspired by the imaginations of fellow writers. About myself: I read often, my reading materials predominantly non-fiction, academic textbooks. Lately, it's been history, though I am on my first read through the Fellowship of The Ring, my first read through of A Chamber of Secrets, and A Grain of Wheat (by Kenyan author, Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o). I care to sing, too; I once dedicated a hand to lyricism and poetry, though it has long been inactive. Perhaps I can find my heart for it again here. I also care to dance, though as it is with singing, I am not formally trained. I am the youngest of four siblings, and originally was born in Germany. I am Afro-Germanic, with my father's heritage being of Jamaica. As of now, I have a couple short stories and a couple plays that I have yet to complete, with all except one taking place in my IP. Here's to my faith in finding kinship and serenity here. Thank you for reading!
Nice entrance: I give it at least an 8.5, but I thought you drew it out a bit and could have given it more punch. Kidding, it's a great entrance! Welcome aboard our little dinghy.
Welcome Brian! I also care to sing and dance even though I am not formally trained! Haha my car has seen some amazing performances just saying. I look forward to seeing what you have to share with us!
