Young Writers Society

Happy birthdayyy!!

Hi there! I hope you're enjoying the site so far!

Some great places to start on the site are:
* The Welcome Mat
* YWS Rules
* FAQs for New Members

And if you're having any trouble getting started reviewing (how you earn points on the site) - The YWS Critique Sandwich is a method a lot of people start with. It's the review method of identifying positives, points of improvements, and overall impressions - a quick way to order reviews.

Also if you're interested in staying up to date with poetry events and activities on the site, I recommend subscribing to the Poetry Club and the Poetry Jam Club. We'd love to have you join!

Best of luck in your writing endeavors!

hello! belated welcome to yws!

Hiya musiclover2006, welcome to YWS! ^-^ 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.

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
