Newbie on Board

Hello! I'm Kae ( even though the display name is Cooper Jettson, though I will answer to either ) and yup, I'm a newbie to this whole thing. I've done rps for about 3 or 4 years on tumblr, but I've never done one on a forum site before. So I will probably take quite a while to figure this all out. But I'm super excited to be a part of this rpg. Currently I'm just trying to look around the site a little and get used to it all. 

I only have one character as of right now, and it will probably stay that way until I get used to this whole thing. His name is Cooper Jettson and his character biography can be found right here: hungergamesrpg.com/thread/74249/cooper-jettson-district-complete

But for now any suggestions on the best places to start a thread or anything? Tips on how to get started and things like that? I can't wait to start writing with you all, so yeah! Any information that might help would be great!
