Hello and welcome to YWS! I'm Mage. Feel free to come to me if you ever have any questions about YWS.
(If I'm ever not on, junior moderators, global moderators and admins definitely would be able to help you out with any questions or concerns you have, and your fellow members would be happy to help as well.)
Before you get settled in, you might want to swing by the rules thread to see what's allowed on the site, and the FAQ thread to figure out how the site works. It explains a lot about the basics of the site, like how to post your works and how to get points. It was really useful to me back when I first joined the site, so hopefully it'll be just as useful for you.
Some fun areas of the site you might want to learn more about are the forums, blogs and storybook section. The forums have fun games, writing activities, and places to talk about whatever writing project you're working on. The blogs aren't used as much as the other sections of the site, but you can post little life updates there. And the storybook section is a place to collaborate on stories - either by co-writing novel-style stories, or by taking part in roleplays.
I hope you enjoy your time on YWS, and feel free to ask me any questions you have about how the site works!

Some helpful links for getting started:
* YWS Official Rules ~ just the basic rules of the site!
* The Welcome Mat ~ introduce yourself and find more about how the site works
* You may have already found out that reviewing is how you earn points to post your writings. Here's a few reviewing resources I love to share: A Rundown on Reviewing, the Sandwich Method, & Avoiding Review Spam.
* And if poetry is your jam, I'd definitely invite you to join the Poem A Week Club where a new prompt rolls out every other week for poetry writing.
If you have questions about how the site works feel free to reach out! I'm one of the moderators on the site, you can find other moderators by their username colors which are dark green, lime green, or red. Happy Writing!
