Hello. My username is Memento Mori, which is in Latin. I got it from a song by Kamelot.

I am a newbie to this site, so I hope that you guys will forgive me for any mistakes I might commit.

Yours truly,
Memento Mori

Hey there :)

I study Latin in school, so I really like your name. Don't worry about making mistakes. I made tons of them (still do, actually ;)) and people have mostly been really nice. Don't hesitate to PM me if I can do anything for you (answer a question, review something...). I'll be glad to help you out.

Looking forward to seeing you around the site!

All the best

Hi and welcome! This is going to be a lame welcome post, as I don't have much time, but I hope you have fun here. Don't worry about making mistakes. Lord knows I've made a ton of them, both on here and in life in general.

There is, however, one important rule that you should follow: Before posting something you wrote, review two pieces and keep your review/story ratio at least 2:1. This way, everybody gets reviews, people don't bombard the forums with all their stuff at once, and everybody's happy.

If you have any other questions, check out the FAQ or the User Guide.

Now I shall stop talking and let you enjoy the marvelous display that is your gift: :D :) :( :o :shock: :? 8) :lol: :x :P :oops: :cry: :evil: :twisted: :roll: :wink: :!: :?: :idea: :arrow: :| :mrgreen: :elephant: :thud: :smt005 :smt006 :smt014 :smt023 :smt034 :smt059 :smt069 :smt081 :smt055 :smt046 :pirate1: :smt118 :smt117 :smt084 :smt041

Hello, I'm kittykat! Welcome to YWS! Memento Mori is your name? If I remember correctly, doesn't that mean "remember death?"

PM if you've got any questions on the site! ...Or anyone with a green or red name.

I enjoy writing contemporary fiction, but I don't think I'm any good at it.

I like reading any good book, and I'll appreciate any book, unless it really doesn't deserve publishing. (Example: Horrible perfect characters, horrible plot)

I enjoy listening to music, writing, reading, drinking coffee with friends and a good laugh never hurts.

Thanks for the warm welcome, everybody.

Hey, welcome to YWS! And now that we have you, we will never let you go! *evil laugh*

No, I'm just kidding.

Nonsense, I am sure that you are a wonderful writer. Just from your posts, I am looking forward to reading some of your work.

To add to niteowl's tips: Read the FAQs and Guides. I sincerely wish I had read them when I first started, since they explain so much.

Welcome once more! I hope to see you around the site!

Nice username! I like it (and Kamelot, though I've only got the CDs my friend burned for me).

You're very polite. I feel the need to point this out.

I can't wait to read what you post!

Momento Mori litterally translates to, "Remember you are mortal, you will die." Colonial headstones especially feature this warning to ongoing spectators that pass their stone.

My Mayflower piece features this common saying in the 16 to 1700s as the title. It's interesting - and cryptic - that someone so young would choose a morbid motto and warning to the living, as a username. I have in my collection of headstones, "Momento Mori" being used. ;)

Welcome to the site - and I'm one of a few history nerds on YWS. ;)
The sadness drains through me rather than skating over my skin. It travels through every cell to reach the ground. I filter it yet strangely enough, I keep what was pure and it is the dirt that leaves.

Thanks for the tip about the FAQs.
When life gives you lemons, make lemonade, pee in it, and serve it to the people who piss you off. Outdo yourself. ^^
