Hi, I don't think you were expecting much. I am Laina, and I have a bit of a long story. I was born of six children, and I am the second to youngest. My family and I (except my younger sister skylar) were all born in the UK. Well, due to my fathers work we ended up moving to America till I was about 9 (thus creating my american accent!) when my grandmother was becoming ill our family took a small trip to visit her. She had ended up passing away, so we moved back to England in order to keep my grandfather company. I was teased at school for my weird way of talking so I decided to write a poem about it. It took a while, but I realized I shouldn't have thrown even that silly little poem away. I created my YWS page to find people who felt the way I do. EVERY PIECE OF WORK IS IMPORTANT, EVEN THE CRAPPY AND CRINGY ONES!! Okay, I am going to join Edward kenway in being an assassin! Good bye!

Way, way back in the 1988 Presidential election, then Vice President George H W Bush had a phrase he liked to use: "A Thousand Points of Light." It refers to the idea that a community is made up of people who contribute in a thousand, different small ways, but with each helping to illuminate their community. It's a phrase I think about a lot when it comes to YWS. Looking forward, the site will continue to change and grow, but it will always remain a community dedicated to promoting creative writing as a favorite pastime.
