Hello guys =),

My name is Alex, I am from Siberia, Russia. I liked to read and write from since I remember myself. I wrote mane things (in Russian, mainly; I started to write in English about a year ago). I like to write scripts (for movies) and short stories.

I write, mainly, about how people can overcome difficulties when it seems there is no way out; and how they fight with the stereotypes of the world we live in.

I study petroleum engineering, and I spent last year in Paris, France, as a part of international exchange program. It is there where I started to write in English to let more people read my stories.

I'm happy to join this society and share my passion for writing here. I'll be glad to have any feedback here, whether they are positive or negative. You know, we study more from negative feedbacks than otherwise =).

Cheers,
Alex M. Neil

Peace be on you. Welcome.
Few interesting notes:
1- Your English is quite good, considering IF (?) first language is Russian.
2- You started to write English when in Paris.
3-"We study more from negative feedbacks than otherwise"

Hi Alex and welcome. I would hate to think it's true that we study or learn more from negative feedback than otherwise, but perhaps it's true. You will receive feedback here, some of it may be negative. I hope you enjoy your experience here!

That is an exceedingly Scottish name for a Siberian! Lucky chap!
