Introduction

Hi Prose!

I've looked into several similar writing community sites like this, but this is the first that has made me feel like I'm part of something. It was really easy to just dive in to this site. To honour the feeling of community I thought I'd introduce myself a little.

I'm not a native English speaker, and writing fiction in English felt like an impossible idea not long ago. I guess I'm here to win those fears. You can find a reference to my own language from one of the writings I've already posted here, so go read them if you're curious ;) (Or you can just ask me.)

I'm also a mother to three small children. I didn't really write fiction in any language before my first child was born. I have always had an endless stream of stories and scenes running in my mind. Staying at home with a baby created the need to write them down, to concentrate on something that was all mine while the rest of me existed only to fill the needs of another being.

Thank you all for sharing your texts and support. I believe I'll have a lot more fun times both reading and writing with you all.
