Hey there everyone. Thirty-something male here who, if you can believe it, is entirely new to roleplaying. I was pointed towards this wonderful site and, while I'm a bit overhwhelmed by everything at the moment, I'm hoping to get to grips with how it all works pretty quickly.

I'm a writer at heart but due to anxiety, depression and a slew of other grim situations, I haven't really had an outlet for my creativity. So...this is a new and welcomed path for me. I hope to very much enjoy the ride! Forgive me for not knowing the ropes!

Hey, welcome!

RP is an excellent outlet for creativity and there are no "ropes" as such to learn. Every partner you work with will have their own approach to writing. Really, the only "rule" of role playing is to respect the boundaries of your partner. Secondly, don't panic if the cohesion doesn't exist with your partner as you find you will go through numerous partners. It's a bit like finding a like-minded musician with whom you can jam. Though disappointing, there is definitely someone out there in terms of creative compatibility.

If you want to know more, let me know.

Once again, welcome.

Hint: develop your resume. That can help to narrow down compatible RP partners for you.
 
Thanks everyone for your kind words. It's really appreciated. and for all the hints and tips.
 
Hi! Welcome to Iwaku! I'm not an expert by any means, but willing to help when I can :)
I know what you mean about it being rather overwhelming at first; I felt exactly the same when I first came here. I was surprised at how quickly I managed to catch on, though.
Roleplay is definitely a wonderful outlet; one I'm glad you've discovered!
Wishing you the be
