Hey,

Hi everyone, as you can see I'm new here. My names LJones (LJ For short). Im from Ohio and graduated from high school this past June. My main focus is writing articles (mainly sports), because in the Spring I hope to be enrolled at The Ohio State University,majoring in journalism. I never actually realized I like writing until I took Journalism instead of English my senior year. So now here I am looking to pursue a career in the subject. I hope to improve on my skills as a writer before starting school in the spring. Feedback is deffinitly welcome and much appriciated. Thanks!

LJones

Hi, LJ! (Haha, every time I write/see that, I'm going to think "LiveJournal." *geek*)

I don't think we have a whole lot of journalists here but, then again, I don't spend a whole lot of time in the Non-Fiction section of the literary forums.

Don't you love when you take classes that really inspire you? (On the flip side, don't you hate it when one bad teacher kills your interest in a subject?)

Hey LJ! Welcome to YWS! If you have any questions or need somebody to talk to, just PM me and I'll try and be interesting.
(But.. am I allowed to say that? I'm not a greeter, but... Oh, well. They can't lynch me if they don't know where I live.)

And that's very much awesome that you had journalism. I'm taking that, too, and it's very fun. :)

So... what kind of books do you like to read? What's your least favorite movie? Do you like guinea pigs? If you had eight minutes to spend any way you wanted, what would you do?

And so on and so forth. :D

Peace out!

Love, Muffin

Hey there, LJ and welcome to YWS! Just thought I'd tell you a little about our buddy system. If you're feeling a little overwhelmed or have some questions, then you could sign up for a mentor who would help you become accustomed to the site. Also, an added bonus is that they are obliged to critique any work you post during the mentoring period. If you're interested then scroll up and click the link in Meep's signature that says 'Buddy System.' Hope you enjoy the site!
