Hey and hello! I'm pretty new to this whole role playing thing, but I've been playing the game for a little over a year.

Welcome to a wonderful world of imagination.

Welcome to the world of roleplaying. Â As I usually do for folks getting their toes wet, I'd like to point you at this resource:
http://rpmadesimple.com/the-rp-survival-guide/

I hope you find some enjoyment out of the roleplaying side of things.
