Ok so I've been looking for a website to satisfy my writing appetite and I think i found it! Hi everyone out there in that big world of creativity, I'm skeptik and very much new to this whole online writing forum thing (i hardly know what an emoticon is but i'm willing to learn) i'm 17 and the first thing I think about everyday is what new thing I'm gonna write. So I'm exploring this place with my jaw dropped but my heart fluttered because I didn't even know stuff like this existed (I'm technologically challenged, I still use my grandma's typewriter) So ya, I dont really know what to do after this but this is my small salutation and step towards bigger adventures to come. (where's a compass when you need one?)

I've had a computer in my household ever since I was born, and I've been online since 1992 so I can't imagine whatsoever what's it like to only be using a typerwriter. It must be nice though; I mean, sometimes I really, really hate the internet and computers because people used to be so much more social before them. For instance, instead of calling someone up or walking over to their house, you just contact them over instant messenger. It's convenient, which is why I do it, but it's not the same.
I am also technologically ... stupid. I knew nothing about the internet until a year or so ago. (well, I knew it existed, I just didn't like using it) There was always a very old computer in my house, only recently did we get one that's any good. I grew up around a typewriter. I never used it, but it was there. The cat used to sleep on it. Welcome!!!
Oh, you're angry! Click your pen.
