Hello and welcome to Mizahar, Auburn! Feel free to dig into everything that looks interesting to you. That also includes players ... if you like people's writing style, why not shoot them a PM with a thread suggestion? You certainly won't regret it.
And honestly, I feel nervous about most characters I start. If I don't, something turns out to be wrong later. So I think it's a good sign to experience some beginning nervousness.
Also, your avvie is incredibly cute!
