Hello Steven,
 
I really like your idea of making friends worldwide and improve the english
language in this way. I would like to make use of your offer and start writing
a few times a week in the english language. I am from Holland and as you may
 well
know we speek dutch. My english is not of the highest level, but I thing we can
 still
learn from each other. Hopefully a real englishman (or woman of course) will
 join in
to assist us a little. Please let me know if you have any objections against my
 joining
this 'english writing club'
 
Best regards
