Narrative:

I was cleared to taxi to runway 27 for departure. I was not cleared onto runway 27. I proceeded onto runway 27 after runup without contacting the tower. They (ground) notified me I had not been cleared onto runway 27. I forgot to contact tower for clearance onto runway 27. I acknowledged my mistake when ground told me of my error. There were no planes approaching runway 27 for landing. I checked before taxiing onto runway 27. No flts were in any danger due to my error. I will be more careful in the future.
