Welcome to the Guild, Cheshy!
I'm very sorry to hear about your social anxiety. I have that as well and I have a feeling that many others on the Guild share your pain. I can only hope that Roleplaying helps you out with that a bit. I'll offer some pointers to help you get started here on the Guild: you can find a handful of neat Guides
here to help you out and you should've also gotten a Guild Starter Pack in your PMs. Depending on your writing level, you may choose to Roleplay in Free (little standards, speed-posting, etc), Casual (good grammar, a paragraph per post, etc) or Advanced (
long posts, amazing grammar, great character development, etc). If you don't feel like gauging your Roleplay level, you can head to Nation, Arena or Tabletop if any of those are your particular forte. If you aren't interested in Roleplaying with groups, you can choose to work with a single partner in 1x1 through threads, PMs or even a chat client.
If you want to come to the Guild Discord, we're more than happy to talk to new members and help them out as well! Aside from, please don't hesitate to ask questions as I'd be more than glad to help you! I hope you are able to find some Roleplays and enjoy the time you spend here on the site.
