I look as the sky roars with joy, my heart pounds, my senses telling me "you won't make it to the next minute" and then suddenly I look towards where the roaring sky was and now all I see are humans laughing, smiling and clapping, I ask myself "are they laughing at me?" I shake the though off and then open my mouth to sing "wake up wake up" was the next thing I heard, I open my eyes, there I was looking straight into the shining SUN.
Welcome EL FINITO,
Welcome to YWS, were the words I heard as I got up from the mat I was lying.

Welcome to YWS! I'm Hope and I'm here to read you our rules.

1) The 3:1 ratio. You want to do three reviews for every one work you post.

2) Plz no cht spk OR CAPS LOCK. That means good grammar, capitalization, apostrophes and no overuse of punctuation (no doing this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!). This also applies in the chat room.

3) Rate your work appropriately. E (everyone), 12+, 16+ or 18+.

4) Be nice, no flaming other members, and keep the swearing where it goes, in your stories.

5) Have fun! (This is the most important rule of all)

You have a very interesting way of saying hello, are you a poet by any chance? If not what do you like to write? Hope to see you around!

Hey El Finto! (Cool user name :))
Welcome to YWS! Bond has already gone over the rules so let me tell you a bit about the user groups, shall we begin?
The blues are greeters, the people who usually greet newbies like you. Tell them the rules, and other basic information, making them feel welcomed. The purps jobs are to review, review, and review! Usually they are very good at critiques, and try to help members become better writers, and improve! Junior mods and Global mods are like their names. Usually in charge of a specific part of YWS. These guys are who you can count on for any basic questions. Admins are 'The Boss' in charge. Help run the site and know every nook and secret of it. Distinguished members are usually mods that left the site, or don't come on as much anymore.

So now some questions for you:
Favorites -
Book:
Author:
Color:
Vacation spot:

Your writing -
How long have you been writing?:
Genre you like to write in?:
Most recent projects\pieces you have been working on?:

Basics -
Want to be\or am a (job):
Location:
Any friends on YWS:
How you found YWS?:

Call me JD by the way.
See ya around! PM me for any questions anytime! :)
-JD
