Welcome to YWS, writingjoy! I'm WD and it's lovely to meet you! I'm glad to hear you're enjoying it here so far! Is there any particular genre you enjoy writing in? Great to see you on YWS! If you have any questions or just want to talk, feel free to PM me!
(at Elinor) Hi! I write stories with action, a little drama, and ones that involve friendship. Oh, and I'm not really working on any major projects.
Nice you to meet you!
(at WD) Hey! It's nice to meet you too. Yeah, I sure am enjoying this site! I enjoy writing action. Why action? Well, it's because it not only gets the reader all pumped up and excited, but the writer too!
Hiya Writingjoy! Can I call you Joy? Fabulous. I'd like to welcome you here. I'm sort of knew, also, so PM (personal message) me if you need anyone to talk to or browse the site with.
While you're just hanging around on the computer, why not check out the Groups on YWS? They are basically forums where people with the same common interests can talk about them! Here's the link: groups.html Just click on the one you want to join and, under membership, click "join group"!
And, while I'm here, how about I point out some things you should do so people love you!
1) This is a writing site, so everyone likes to keep with proper grammar. Example, capitalizing I's, and saying conjunctions correctly: can't instead of cant 2) Make sure and review three other works before posting your own! Reviews are at least 250 words. 3) No being mean to other writers! If you do not like their story, try and let them off easy. 4) Have fun! I'll see you around! ~Classy
Hi, Joy! Nice to meet you. I hope (and I know) that you'll love it here at YWS. Everyone who joins does--at least, 99.9 of them do I'm going to keep this sort of short, considering a lot of people have already covered most things. The chat room is a great place to meet more players, and of course, where a lot of us get our first nicknames! Hola, I am Mizzle! We are quite fond of nicknames here, you see. It's quite hilarious. Has anyone mentioned that you can make your own blog? It's quite something! Tell us about everyday happenings in your life, etc. If you need help with making a blog, feel free to PM one of us (Any Senior Writer+ on YWS, or even anyone, actually)! Of course, the Usergroups are quite phenomenal. There's a group fit to everyone's hobbies, joys, and interests. And if there isn't a group that fits you, then you can make one! Honestly, if you need anything, feel free to PM me--even if you just want to talk. Tata for now! -Mizzle

Four kinds of people I hate most in life. 1. People who use a preposition to end a sentence with. 2. People who can't count. 3. People who think it's 'clever' to quote ironic phrases.
Thanks to both for offering to help out![/quote] Hey there Writing! Welcome to YWS! I'm JustDance but call me JD. So you like action, eh? Perfect way of describing it right there. Your stories sound appealing to everyone, which is great. PM me sometime for any questions or a good chat! Bye! -JD
