Just started my FREE Custom Graphics database that will hopefully help some of you enjoy making epically stylized reviews and posts!

Sleep is for the weak.......I shall not be weak when there are pages to slay!

I got the email that I got a new follower on YWS after not being active for years and lemme tell you, you spooked the hell out of me

Hiya R33SES, welcome (back) to YWS! ^-^ You probably know this already, but this is a wonderful place for readers, writers, poets, roleplayers, and just people in general, and we're thrilled you're here! Here are some quick links you might want to check out:

FAQ for New Users This post lists the basics of publishing and reviewing works on YWS.
Official YWS Rules & Guides Here are our site rules. Essentially, please be a decent person and be considerate of others. :]
Knowledge Base This is a treasure trove of helpful articles about poetry, writing, reviewing, and more. One useful thread is the Big Book of YWS Codes, which is a guide to the bbcode that you can use on YWS to add colors, images, and more! Plus, see the list of icons (like ) here and the list of smilies (like and ) here.
Review Tips This post has links to a ton of resources on reviewing. Reviews are how we give and receive feedback on our works on YWS! Please do not use AI or copy-paste reviews, as most writers are looking for unique human feedback. ^^ I know reviewing can be tough sometimes, especially if you feel like there's nothing to critique, but it gets easier with practice! And here is a great resource for reviewing writers more skilled than you.

Along with reviewing other ywsers' works and publishing your own works, you can have some fun in the Randomosity forums, join a roleplay, hang out on the People tab, or just explore the site. And of course, feel free to ask me or any moderator (junior or global) any questions you have! (You can hit the little black arrow below this post to reply right now.) I hope you'll like it here! =D

Welcome (back!) And congrats on a shiny new star!

I would say welcome to YWS, but it appears you have been around on YWS longer than I have, in that case, welcome back!

HELLO YWS!!! It's been far too long.... But alas! The world can not keep me away from the birthplace of my dreams!

Hopefully my return is met with many of the same wonderful people I knew so long ago, and branches into many more friendships! I see a Green Room filled with many new works waiting to be vanquished! My pen might be rusty, but fail me it won't!
