Howdy,

New member here. Excited to have found this forum, I think it's just what I needed. Perfect place to pass the time when I'm not hacking away at my stories (read: staring at blank page).

Looking forward to everything AW has to offer.

Mr. Biddy. I find if I'm sitting there staring at a blank page for any length of time, that the best way to trigger new ideas is to get a new and different perspective, so... carefully, by the top left corner... Turn the page over and just start writing.
