    From behind the door in the unlit hallway, a slender hand appears, slowly waving to the crowd.

    Hi all,

    My name is Werner, newbie but enthusiast scriblist from the Netherlands. Trying to write a story in English to educate, entertain and express myself.

    Hope to post some snippets now and then of a story I'm creating to get some input on how to be more creatinve in dialogues, keeping it sharp but exciting and all the other usefull stuff a creative writer can learn about. :)

    Looking forward to share and meet with you all.

    Hi Werner! Welcome to WF :)

    I've been to the Netherlands once (Maastricht) and I really liked it, and the Dutch people I met. :)

    It's fun to meet other EFL speakers who write in English. It's not my first language either.

    Here's our New Member Quick Start to get you started. See you around! :)

    Hi all,

    Thanks for your welcoming kind words. :)

    Maastricht is not the particular tourist hot spot that I am aware of but certainly a nice place to be. Good to hear you liked it. I myself live near Deventer: https://www.google.nl/maps/place/Deventer/@52.2489188,6.1637239,13z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x47c7ebc9af5d5611:0xc1a40d18d98571e3!8m2!3d52.2660751!4d6.1552165?hl=nl Also a nice place to visit which is not the typical tourist thing you hear when thinking about the NL. :)
