Hi everyone! My name's Sammi; I'm sixteen years old and a brand new member to this website, though no where near a newbie to writing.

I've been writing since I was little, but it was only a few years ago that I began to think as highly of it as I do today. I began with Harry Potter fanfiction for a year or two, but since then, have moved on to original work. Fantasy prose and poetry of all sorts are my favorite genres to write, and I hope to become an accomplished writer one day, as many probably do. ;)

I found the link to this website in Writer's Digest magazine, and I must say I love it so far! I can't wait to read/review the works of those on this site, and post some of my own works in the very near future.

Great site!

Hey! ...Welcome then - Writer's Digest has started a flood!

Anyhow, 'hope to see your stuff posted and all that. (I sort of started out fanfiction-wise also. ^_^'') If you've got any questions, the mods are always helpful...and most of the all and sundry remainder are as well.

SO welcome! ^_^

Thank you! ^-^ Also fun to see another writer who sort of began with fanfiction as well, hehe.

Hi!

I'm fairly new to YWS as well (I've been here for a little over a week). I hope to see some of your writing around.

I'm sure you'll like it here, it's a wonderfully addicting site. :P

Hey! Welcome to YWS. Writer's Digest has spawned a whole new generation of us, hasn't it?

Um. There's a fanfic forum if you're still into that sort of thing. It's fairly new, and we'd all feed you cookies and cake (okay, I'd feed you cookies and cake) if you posted some stuff.

See you around!

Cake and cookies? Hmm, that sounds like a good offer. :P

I'll definitely go post some of my older fanfiction up there for any Harry Potter fans out there. Thanks for the welcome!

Welcome Sammi: it does seem like Writer's Digest is attracting a lot of new members :)

Hmm, you're fanfiction would be fun to read, and anything else you post! If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to contact me or any other member of Big Brother (moderators and admins) with questions. Otherwiser, there are FAQs and Rules available for reference. If you PM any member, most would respond positively too. Hope you enjoy your stay here.
