Hi, I'm just 24 yo (literally, today February 16th, at least in this timezone, is my birthday), and I have tried writing "flash stories" and poems before but I never really took it seriously, or finished anything I liked. However, every time I try I come out with renewed strength to improve my writing and, just as important, read more and better. However, I cannot find people with whom to speak and share things in English where I'm from. I can't explain why I am compelled to write and read in English—it isn't my mother tongue, nor I'd say I am bilingual, I'm Spanish. But I love the English language, and I want to improve as much as I can. I'd like to meet people here to that end.
Hey, happy birthday! I understand the compulsion to write in English. There's something uniquely fascinating about it.
Welcome to the forums and hapy birthday! I'm always happy to read and critique your work friend, drop me a link or an excerpt any time you fancy. I think it'll be interesting to read a story or poem in English that isn't written by a native speaker. That kind of opportunity is very exciting to me!
Hello~ I may be an amateur writer, but I am always happy to discuss the world of the word with people! Just let me know!
