Hello everyone

Hi,
I'm kinda new, and scared. I've had this account for about a month, but could not remember my password until now. I'm not quite sure what this website is, but I hope it will be a good place for me to share my writings. I also hope to be able to read some great pieces.
Thank You for this reading it means so much to me.

Hey Mickey! My name is Flow. I hope that you are already enjoying YWS, and to come to read and post writings you have come to the right place. That is pretty much what we do here. You didn't really tell us much about yourself. What kind of stuff do you like to write? What do you read? What is your favorite color?

If you ever need anything feel free to let me know.

Hi there, Mickey! Welcome to YWS (a month late!) and I hope you have the time of your life here. To help you get around the site, I'll give you a few pointers and tell you what the normal deal is here in the YWS family. I already know that you'll love it here, because it's just that sort of environment--if you want to make friends and be a friend, then you'll have friends! And, if you stick with us, your writing will climb to unbelievable heights. We all help each other out here!

To get to know YWS, you just need to know the basics.

So, YWS at its simplest core prides itself in two essential things: writing and reviewing.

Writing
Up on the main toolbar, you'll find an icon labeled Submit. When you click that icon, it'll take you to a menu on which you can post your works! Feel free to post your written works on the site to get critiques, advice, or general reviews from anyone around the site! We ask that you rate your work accurately, just to avoid any mess with inappropriate age content getting delivered to the wrong person. There's a posting limit of two pieces per forty-eight hours, and each post takes 100 points to post.

Points are like a system of money on YWS--but don't be afraid; they cost nothing. To get points, you need to write Reviews on works of other YWSers!

Reviews are what keep YWS running and growing. Whenever a user posts a written work, other users review it, critique it, and comment on it, telling the user what they liked, disliked, and how they can improve. It's just a fantastic way to grow one another in our writing.

Each review gives you 50 points, so if you do your math correctly, it takes two reviews to post one written piece of your own. It may seem daunting at first, but once you get reviews on your own writing, you'll understand the beauty of the system.

The writing forums on YWS are fantastic and diverse, and give you a realm for anything that you can devise. And, if you're a fan of collaborative writing, we have our Storybook forum (which takes forever to explain!). You can find all the information regarding Storybooks Here.

We also have Blog forums and Clubs that you can join, but you can discover those on your own with no problem! Of course, if you have any questions or get lost, feel free to PM me or any of the others around here, and we'll shoot you in the right direction! Of course, you can always refer to the Information Desk!

See you around!

Hey, Mickey!

So, Lumi's given you the basic run-down of where things are and such, so I just thought that I'd just say hi and welcome you to YWS! It's a pleasure to have you here, and this really is a great writing website, so I hope you decide to stick around!

Like Flower said, tell us about yourself! What are your favorite stuff to write and read? Do you have any favorite movies or food that you really like?

I hope you enjoy the site, and feel free to send me a PM if you have any questions! I'm Ellie, by the way.

Yo Mickey!

Great to have you here with us. So, hey there! Hi! Wlecome to YWS! I'm sure you'll find this a great place to talk of your writerly deeds and post your works.

Hope to see you around soon!

If you need me to review any of your work feel free to PM me(private message) or if you have any questions. So, good luck and have fun!

Noooo!
Don't be scared!
We don't swear,
We'll help you out,
Because we care.

Welcome,
You'll love it here,
Soon, you'll shed a tear,
At the thought of leaving here.

Glad to have you here Mickey! Why can't we make a nickname out of your name? Anyway, enjoy my miserable attempt at making a rhyming welcome poem. If you need reviews check out the will review for food forum, or just write on people's walls. See you around!

As everyone else has; WELCOME!!!!
It's very nice to meet, If you have any questions about this place don't come to me! I still get lost from time to time. But don't let that discourage you there is always a friendly person just around the corner to help you out!
:gives you hugs and a cookie*

Hey there,


Everyone else has pretty much summed up YWS. But I thought I would say hello as well .... I'm watchmeburn, or, burn, or, er, watch, and some call be burny, (but there are weird people who are good at poetry. Are you good at poetry??

If you are you are weird buts that's OK we will all still talk to you because this site is for weird people (LOL), and story writers and artists. This is a great site that know you will enjoy!! If you have any question just ask ANYONE you you lay your eyes on (we are all very friendly here)!!

I also HIGHLY recommend you read Snoink's welcome/ rules to this site>>> topic42132.html


So enjoy the site and I hope to see you around

Thank You all so very, very much. I can't believe that so many people would comment on a post made by me.
You guys are all awesome. Some things more about me are that, I LOVE too read and write. My favorite color is purple, and my favorite animal is the tiger. I am very weird, but weird people are, in my opinion so much more fun. I have major problems with commas, but I'm working on it. I thank you all so much for being so kind as to welcome me. Thank You so much you guys are the best.
