Hello
Some introducings first!
I'm an 18 years old came to the U.S. 4-5 mounts ago. I still can't write and speak english well, so you'll see a lot of funny mistakes here in my posts, :D.
I read so much, i love reading, anything, anywhere, anytimes, from the writings behind a mars bar paper to big heavy old dirty dusty books! And I used to write a lot also, In my native language of course.
It was a dream, "To Become an Author", but it always seemed so far, far as it still seems.
I would just be very grateful if anyone here can give me some advices to where to start, I was pretty good in the "Literature" subject in my country, my teachers had been always told me that my essays and stories that I write are really good for my age, but it'd been a long time I don't wrote. Now I'm trying to write my memories and some biographies about the people I like and some poems in english, which is funny though! you'll find a lot of grammar mistakes there. :D
My main purpose of opening this topic was geting some help from you about how and where to start in English literature, what to do to improve my writing skills, and etc.
Thank you all, and sorry for the bad english.
