Hello, my name is Aaron, i am new to writing and have always wanted to write a book. i am also an aweful typist and cannot use computers for jack. but i am determined to not let this stop me. i am 20 years of age and did not do to great at My gcse levels, i am a chef and waiter by trade and i love that. however i wish i put my brain power into punctuation and spelling when i was younger. i Don't really know what i want to write, however i love Books like 'the gum thief' and Hitch-hikers guide to the galaxy (the whole seriese, i also put up with the last one he didnt write) stories within stories or side line plots are what intrigue me most. i hope to share what i have wrote up to now i hope to make an abumdance of very short stories that are weird and wonderful and in some cases hopefully inspiring. and i feel that i might be able to find some help here. i hope to get to know all of the forum members and am going to have a wander ands get my feel for things chow for now Aaron
Welcome to the forum, Aaron. Don't let the typing skills get you down. I'm 43 and still hunt and peck to this day. Please have a look through the Forum Rules, and the FAQ as a start. Have fun! Wrey

Yeah, you should have checked out the rules before posting your writing, because we don't allow that until you've met certain criteria. But good luck and if you need anything, don't be afraid to ask.
I realised this when i got the PM! thank you for explaining and i think that is a good way to go about things as well! i will be away for a week after tomorrow but i shall look forward to engaging in the comunity when i get back ! thank you for the help. hope to hear from you soon!
