Found this list because it's sent over 400 visitors to YWS this past month (YWS is the first listed site on the list), but I think anyone would do well to spend just a few minutes checking it out. It's a list of 40 good sites for young writers to check out:

YWS owns for being the first on the list.

Even though we already knew it would be :D

That's how I found this place! I just googled something like: websites for youngwriters and clicked on one of the first results and viola here I am.

Of course YWS is number one. I have looked around and even asked my creative writing teacher for good sites, and this is the best one.

Go YWS!

Really? That's pretty cool. Now if only more kids were on here rather than misspelling every other word on myspace.

"hi wat r u doing ryt now?"

"im jst listening to music"

"oh thats cool. Wat song is it?"


Not sure if that's accurate on how people type when they feel that spelling out an entire word is too troublesome. But, you get the idea.

You got rid of them. Yes, that's just like you. Getting rid of everything unpleasant instead of learning to put up with it.
