the irony of the writing website having such blatantly incorrect grammar in a core function is very amusing to me

younger (2/23/21) mint in response to a welcome from @Seirre:
Hey whatcha! I’d say my favorite genres are fantasy and scifi, although I’ll pretty much read anything that looks interesting (I totally judge books by their covers XD). Mostly I write poetry or short stories; I kind of want to write a novel but I don’t have the persistence for it :p. Maybe someday!

and... guess what? A little less than two years later, on 2/19/23, I finished drafting a novel. =O It would've been practically unfathomable for two-years-younger mint that I'd be able to consistently write 1000 words/week and end up with an over-24k-word novel. This just goes to show how much YWS has helped me grow as a writer and a person <3 Just aaa I am so thankful for all the lovely people on this site who make events like LMS possible and :'D love you all! <333 (Seriously. To take and modify a quote from @Snoink's novel: I love you all and YWS more than I can say. =P)

Like I'm actually mindblown by this. I have?? a novel draft?? 0.0 AAAAAA =D

Hello hello! With NaPo coming up, we're having a special song lyric discussion for our Poetry Readers pad this March! The date/time will be (adjusts to your timezone). You can bring song lyrics from any musical artist you like to discuss. Some examples of the things we might talk about would be favourite lines, how the language of the song makes you feel, etc.

As usual all YWS rules and the content rating system will apply to the pad. Said pad will be posted in the Poetry Readers club and on the People's Tab.

We hope to see you there!
