Hi everyone! Name's Nir and I joined the site in hopes of improving my writing skills. While I write well enough for academic essays, I find that I'm lacking skill in the creative department. I don't necessarily plan to become an author, but I enjoy writing and aim to learn as much as I can. I've written a few short stories before on another writing site, but that was ages ago (plus, the site now seems to be dead). So, I'm starting fresh. While I'm not writing short stories, I'm finally dabbling in fanfiction. I hope the genre of writing isn't looked down upon here, as I'm aware of the...reputation surrounding the hobby. However, I always wanted to write fanfiction as I never got the chance to do so before, so here's to it!
