Just me introducing myself.
Hi, I'm Patch, I'm a seventeen year old person interested in submitting some work to see if I'm up to scratch in the scheme of things. I write sci-fi, fantasy and the just plain absurd. But I don't do real works or poetry.
I'm into a few things. Computers, computer games, board games (depending on what kind), martial arts, baking, writing, reading, game designing, running, making furniture. I'm sure this is completely fascinating, so here's my question.
I'm a little intimidated about the whole '2 review before submit' thing. I'd be happy to abide by it, but I'm the exact type of person you don't want reviews from (either too insulting or just saying 'good job'). So my question is; is it okay to just review plot?

Heh, what a waste of your time to make you read all that.

Hi welcome to the site =]
The 2 reviews per post rule is just to stop people from posting loads and loads and not giving anything back, because that would mean that everyone wouldn't get equal attention. I think it's fair really. Don't be intimidated!

You can review plot if you want, that's fine, it's just important as the other aspects, and there are other people that can fill in other stuff int heir reviews. If you think you need to learn some tips for reviewing there are a few round here,
topic25106.html have a look at that link, there are lots of articles there.

I hope you like it here anyway =]

Welcome, Patch!

Sure it's alright just to review plot – and I'm glad you actually asked that, because it shows you're interested in reviewing. :) And that's considered a really good feature in a YWSer. Haha.

You like board games? What's your favourite? Have you ever played Carcassonne? It's one of my favourites, as well as the good old Monopoly :D

Well, in case you already haven't, I'll just remind you of reading the rules etcetera, because that's what the Greeters (blue name) do. I think you have already read them, though, but anyway. :)

Oh my, you're from Australia! That's one of the many places I really, really, would like to visit someday. I have a penpal there, in New South Wales. What's it like in there?

Mmm-hmm. If you ever need any help while surfing around the site, just PM me and I'll help the best I can!

See you around!
