Hello

Hi, I'm Howl.
I love writing stories, though I don't really think I'm that good. I mostly write fantasy and fan fiction, but I will give anything a shot at least once. I'm awkward at times as well, but I love talking to people. Well, I think that is all, bye.

Welcome to YWS!

Welcome to the site, Howling!

XD We're all awkward at times, but nobody judges us for it, on this site. We're all just one big happy family, who love helping each other out. Let me know if you need anything!

Aah! New users! Run away!! *hides behind boulder* Welcome!! *grins and waves a colourful flag*

Hey, welcome to YWS! It's okay if you don't think you're that good. You're probably better than you think, and we're all here to improve! I hope you like it here!

Hi Howl! Welcome to YWS! Have you ever seen the movie or read the book Howl's Moving Castle? Your nickname made me think of it and I was like "ahhh!"

My name is Iggy. It's a pleasure to meet you! I hope you enjoy it here.

Here are the rules of YWS, so be sure to read those! This is the forums page, where you can find The Lounge, the Welcome Mat, the Writers Corner, etc. Have a look around, as each forum may have subforums inside. Here is the Storybook section, and this is a FAQ, which should answer any questions about Storybooks, or what you do to make one, etc. Another useful FAQ is this.

Also, you may notice that some of the users around here have differently-colored usernames. Anyone you see in this color, this color, or this color, that means that they're a moderator! The top boss, the guy in black, that's Nate, so you can also go to him if you need help! You may also see this color and this color around the site! Those are members of the site who originally served on the mod squad but are now retired! You can find a whole list of the mods, past and present, here. PM any of us if you need help!

I'd like to introduce you to The Buddy System! It's a place where mentors like me can help out newbies like you! I hope you go have a look and see you around! Please, if you need anything, feel free to post on my wall or PM me.
