Hey all! I'm a 17 year old writer & editor! My username means "falling rain" in Elvish. :D

Looking forward to reading & posting stuff! I've been checking out the poetry, and it looks like there are a ton of good writers on here! :) But I have a question--I reviewed four poems, and it says I have three reviews. Does it have trouble counting? :P

Heyo, Ninja speaking!

Hm. Well, it depends on how long the review was. In order for it to qualify as a review, it has to be 250 characters (there's a little box that tells you). I know, did the same thing a lot too. :/

So you're a poet, aye? Eh, can't help you there, my thing's fiction. But if you have any questions not about poetry, I'd be glad to help.

Mucho... love-o,

Hey Ninja! LOVE your username! :D

Ahhhh... I see. Tricksy thing! Will it count if I go back and edit it to make it longer? :P

Ha, I write poetry, fiction, practically anything. Excepting essays. ;)

Yeah, it should count! And I know... essays are icky. I always end up trying to write mine like a fiction novel... but it's getting better. :)

Hey Lanta!
I love the name. My name.. er.. it's just Lava.

Welcome to YWS! So, you've plunged in into reviewing. Awesome! I read poetry but I'm not much of a reviewer.

Anyway, hope to see you around soon.
Cheers,
~Lava

Hi Lanta! Welcome to YWS! I'm WD, and it is fabulous to meet you! That is nifty that your username is in Elvish--are we talking Tolkien Elvish here? (I don't know of any other, but I thought I should ask. ;)) I happen to be a great fan of Tolkien. Anyways, that's great that you have begun reviewing! Poetry is very much fun! I don't write much of it anymore, but my days of writing poetry were great. :) Are you working on any poems right now? Do you have a favorite poet? If you have any questions or just want to talk, feel free to PM me! Have a lovely day!

Hi Lanta!

Welcome to YWS! I'm LavenderBlue, but many call me Lav, Lavvi, Ender, Der or Blue.
You should come to chat sometime :) A great procrastination tool XD

Ooh...anything pretty and/or mysterious catches my eye.

It's great you're into reviewing right away. Most aren't.

Welcome again!
