My name is Jordan, and I found this site while looking for a lovely place to discuss writing. I’ve found one- yes?

Anyway, please excuse me if I act insane. It happens sometimes, and I can be horribly nervous about showing anything I’ve written to anyone. Hopefully I’ll get over it, with the help of some new friends here!

Hey Jordan! Welcome to YWS! I'm Maybe, or May for short.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding the site, or if you want a critique, feel free to PM me. I'd be glad to help! And check up on the FAQ's and Rules as they're a great way to get your questions answered as well. ^.^

Remember to review two other pieces of work before you post one of your own. That way, you'll not only be helping yourself, but other authors as well. And it'll help your work get more reviews.

Ok, basic greeting/info out of the way...

What is it you like to write? Read? What music do you listen to? Do you like salty or sweet things better? Land or sea? Strawberries or Bananas (if either)? Crayons or Markers? Cupcakes or Muffins?

See you around the site! Have fun, and good luck with your writing!

Welcome to the site!

You've been lucky enough to find a great writing site. ^^ We have so many amazing people, and there is so much going on, so much help, everywhere! It can be a bit overwhelming, so if you find yourself needing help with something feel free to pm me!

I also noticed your comment on The Brothers Karamazov. I'm glad to know a fellow Dostoevsky fan is running around! But, what sort of things do you write? I hope you can get over your shyness. Reviews here help so much. Honestly, since joining YWS, I've improved in so many ways!

I agree with Suzzane ^. Reviews really help out, if you they're taken positively that is.

Any who, Welcome to YWS, Jordan! Don't worry about your insanity. Even if you weren't insane, you'd eventually lose your sanity hanging out around here. Most of us are insane here.

As Maybe already said, make sure you check out the Guides, FAQs and Rules. PM if you have any questions or need any help.

I have a friend named Jordan in California. First thought when I saw the subject was, "What? Fire actually convinced Jordan, Jordan to join a writing site?"

But alas, You're a girl and you're older than he is. To be honest, I would have demanded to know what you were doing here if you were him.

As anyone on here can tell you, insanity is good. You'll fit right in. Welcome to YWS! :D
