Oi there! 

After learning that the online reading and writing community is far bigger than I imagined, I happily went out in search for websites that would guide me through this world. So far, I must say that Royal Road truly seems like a place to properly grow as a writer. I do not care about fame that much, if I know a single soul has liked the words I wrote down I am a happy man. With all the content this website has to offer, I am looking forward to reading the many stories and seeing how they will teach me. No better way to pass the time these days, don't you agree?

Complete agreement, man!

Nothing better than reading and exploring the many worlds that authors create.
No, wait, let me rephrase that!

The only better thing than reading...is writing and creating your own worlds and characters! But reading is always the next-best thing!

Welcome to Royal Road!

Welcome to Royalroad! I totally agree on loving to read stories,

though I haven't had too much of a chance to go through the mass amount of them on this site. 

Hi There, and welcome to Royal Road.  Heh, mis-fingered the keyboard and almost welcomed you to Royal Toad.

Welcome to Royal Road. Hope you enjoy writing and reading here. Good luck.

Welcome to the Road :) Have fun, that's the main thing! The community here is very friendly and helpful (that and the high quality of writing are strong attractions to this site) so if you need anything, as a reader or writer, put in the forums!

Welcome to Royal Road! I hope you have a blast here. 

Welcome! I feel that you will encounter many interesting genres and mixed ones too here that may catch your eye as well as an abundance of resources and help from others in the forums.
