I get this newsletter from the English department at my college every month or so. Awhile back (last year) it mentioned how someone got published on some e-magazine called Toasted Cheese. Recently I remembered that...then on that site it mentioned how it was one of the 101 best sites for writers on Writers Digest. So I looked at that list saw a link to this site and was curious...

I'm on fictionpress but the "reviews" there aren't really helpful at all. I guess they're more like a self-esteem booster. But yeah, I'm liking this site better.

I found it in google when I searched for young writers groups. I'd emailed the author Jodi Picoult (She's my favourite) and she told me there were many online groups out there for young writers. So I googled Very Happy I hadn't realized these groupd existed online, silly me Very Happy

Some others came up in the search too but YWS was the best one ! Wink

I was looking for a good website to post my works and get some critiques. I had a lot but none, so far, is up to par to YWS. Wink

Ummm...I don't actually remember. Confused I think I may have found it through Google or another writing site. I was basically just browsing around and looking for something to do.

I was looking for a place to submit my writing to get feedback or just to get my name out there and I stumbled unto this after a few hours. I stopped looking after that and I'm very satisfied so far.

I was on writing.com. Then got disillusioned with the lack of feedback. I then browsed for young writer's forums [or something like that] and found this to best out of the ones I found. Woop.
