Hi everyone I've just joined the forum a couple of days ago and thought I should post something to get involved since this seems like such a friendly, welcoming community. I have spent the last six months deep in the mire of finishing off my debut novel, The Cadaver's Carnival, so that I can start sending it out to agents and have just come up for air. Since writing can be such a lonely process at times, I thought it was high time that I joined this forum in order to connect with other aspiring writers. I look forward to getting to know you all, reading (and commenting on) some of your work and joining in with the discussions. If you want to find out more about me and my unexpected writing adventure, please check out my website - www.mattkendrick.co.uk Cheers Matt
