This is better than going to school and being with people who don't understand why you like reading and writing so much. I don't hate school, believe me, but it's really nice to be somewhere you could truly relate with. I wish you all could take it easy on me, I'm just new to this. I hope I could be truly welcome here. I love you guys already.

Hiya there Janine! Welcome to YWS!

Don't worry, YWS is a uber friendly site. So don't be afraid to ask questions of anyone or just make friends :P We're all here to help one another improve our writing skills to become skilled writers. So don't hesitate to leave a helpful review for someone on thier piece. The more you review the more people will review your work. And it is rather easy once you get the hang of it ;)

The chatroom is a good place to meet new people and learn new things. Also, clicking random things also helps.

If you need any help, feel free to PM or post on my guestbook!

Hello! Don't worry we don't bite. (well most of us!)Everyone is very friendly and polite here. I agree with you about being able to relate to other people who enjoy writing and reading. I feel the same way. If you have any questions just PM me or leave a comment in my guest book. Hope to see you around! - Ballerina :elephant:

Hi Janine! Welcome to YWS! :D Don't worry, we're all really great people here, we love to be silly, and are very lovable. So tell us a little about yourself! What kind of stuff do you like to write? Do you have any nicknames? (My aunt's name is Janine, and we call her Nini.) What's your favorite color? And finally, what flavor of ice cream do you think is the bestest in the whole world?

Hope to see you around ;).

I know what you mean, and we love you too. That was pretty much my reaction when I started on this website....
I hope you post lots of work and edit even more; this place can work miracles on your writing and your self-esteem, if you only use everything there is to offer.

Hi Janine! It's wonderful meeting you! :D

Welcome to YWS. I hope you're enjoying your time here already. ;)

I don't hate school, believe me, but it's really nice to be somewhere you could truly relate with.

I completely agree. It awesome being here, in my opinion, in the fact that you are surrounded by all these writers who totally know where you are coming from. Plus, it's not just writing that everyone has in common. ;)

Now, on to some questions.
~If you could meet any person from the past, present, or literary world, who would you meet and why?
~What's your favorite animal?
~Did you get a lot of snow this year? Did you enjoy that? Why or why not?
~What are some of your favorite novels?

I'll see you around! If you need anything, though, or just want to talk, feel free to PM me. :D Have a wonderful time!

Smiles!

(Emphasis on the most of us don't bite. Mira does. And oh, how it hurts). ;)

Anyway, welcome to/bienvenue a/wilkommen/fáilte go YWS! You can call me Stella and I love the Wizard of Oz and speak three and a half languages (I'm not so good at the German). Do you speak any, other than English? Your favourite type of cheese?

And we love you already as well!

I hope you're finding your way round the site, I know it can be a little overwhelming but remember no matter how scary anyone round here seems, I assure you they aren't!

So, you know, I hope you stick around- else I'll come to your house with an army of spoons and attack!

Drop me a PM if you need anything,

-Stella.

I don't know what kind of stuff that I like to write but I write whatever I feel like writing.
I have no nicknames (boo!). But I wish someone could call me Janie. :))
My favorite color is Black and Pink together.
Cookies and Cream. Or hazelnut brownie.
:D

Jane Austen. Pride and Prejudice was the first book ever given to me. Even though I was about 7 years old at that time.
Lions. :))
It doesn't snow here. :D I would like to go somewhere where it could snow.
A bunch really. (Novels)

Hi Janie, Welcome to YWS! :D
^^^(You said you wished someone would call you Janie. I will now call you Janie forever! :D)

Lions are some of my favorite animals too! Do you like The Lion King? I think it's probably my favorite movie.
Man. I wish I lived in a place where it never snowed. I hate snow and really all cold weather. Snow on Christmas is nice and I guess it's nice when we miss school but other than that, completely worthless. :D

What is your baked good of choice? If you could hang out with one band/singer for one day, would you choose? If you were a marine biologist, what animal would you study and why? If you could have any superpower, what would you choose and why? What's your favorite topping for pizza?

I hope you have a great time here and if you have any questions or need anything, feel free to PM me! :D
