um...?

Hey Josianne! Welcome to the site!

If you go to the top of the webpage and hold your mouse over "Forums," you can click on "Literary" to get to the Literary Forums to post your work and review others (but make sure to read the rules, first!).

If you need more help, feel free to PM any of the mods (those of us with green names!), and be sure to check out the "Buddy System" thread here in the Welcome Forum. There, you can contact someone to be your mentor for a month, and they'll help you with anything you need!

P.S. To PM people, look at the bottom of their post and click the button that says "PM Me!" Have fun, and enjoy!

Ahoy Josianne! Welcome aboad YWS! I'm Razorblade.

Well, to review & post work, simply look at the top of any page for the "Forums" button, wait for the little drop-down menu, and click "Literary." There you'll find a whole list of forums divided into genres. Choose the best area for your work, click into that forum, and start a new thread! Put the title in the subject line, and you can put a small description in the line below that if you like. Don't forget to rate your work based on content and age-appropriateness.

Also, at the bottom of each list of forums, there's a forum for help & tips- the first one is poetry, the second is prose, and the third is anything else! These three, along with certain forums you'll find on the "Community" page, are the place to discuss writing & exchange tips & etc. There's also several usergroups for that- go up to "Forums" and click "Usergroups" to take a look.

Remember to post at least two in-depth critiques (constructive criticism! Include positives and negatives) before posting your own work, and try to keep a reasonable ratio of critiques to work.

Most other forums are dedicated to lounging around and making friends! Just explore, have fun, and PM me with any questions. I'll gladly help you out with anything you like.

Hope you enjoy yourself here!
