Well first of all hi, my name's Selma and I love to write ...I feel like I'm in AA for some reason just by introducing myself like that...

ANYWAY

I'm kind of a nerd in some way and I like anime and different styles of music all the way down to J-Rock and videogame BG music. I play guitar (just a bit) and piano (still learning).

I came across this place through trial and error and for once found a place where I can write and post it up on the web. I love writing things that deal with fantasy/fiction and a little bit of romance now and again. I think writing fanfic's kind of helped with that, but then I wanted to do my own things XD
I'm currently working on something that's a bit 'Twilight' inspired I guess you could say and I hope tp post it up on here pretty soon.

I really hope I'll get to meet a lot of new people here, and writers just as well. My inspiration for writing was 'The Silver Kiss' and recently it's been 'Twilight' despite I'm not a big fan of that book.
Time goes around, and soon your future will be the present, so does that mean that there was a past?

Welcome to YWS! We don't bite... hard. But I think you'll find this a good place just to get feedback from your peers on your work and stuff. :D

Heyy Welcome TO YWS!!!!!!!!

Selma, be sure to check out our Rules/Guides and FAQs as it'll help you out a lot!

Yes, It is quite awesome to be able to post your stuff on the net and get other writers to help you. This site has helped me out so much in my writing. I've improved a great deal since I joined YWS. I'm sure it'll help you just as much.

Lucky!! I always wanted to play the guitar, I actually took classes, but I can't because the tips of my fingers start hurting... like really bad. And I started to get blisters.

I play the recorder though.


Well have fun here! And I'll be sure to check out your work when you post it up.
If you need any help or have any questions feel free to PM me (I won't bite you).

See you around!

Welcome to YWS. I'm Rick. I hope you enjoy the site as much as we all do. After you get 25 reviews, you can access the YWS chatroom and talk about any work you're doing, ask for crits for anything, ask anyone if they have something they want/need critted, and/or just hang out in and talk about your day. Before you post your own work, you need atleast two crits. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions/concerns about anything.

Bye.

-Rick.

Most of us don't bite. But those who do are nice, cuddly, and vicious? ^_^


Like the rest have said, if you have any questions feel free to ask me! So, you like vampire novels, I take it? Have you read any Anne Rice? If you like vampires, I would suggest picking up Interview with the Vampire. It's a bit more adult, but way better than Twilight, I think.


Hope you enjoy the site!

Hi there from sunny England!

Welcome to YWS! I tend to write more crime stuff than fantasy, but nevertheless I would be interested to see your work.

What do you do in your spare time, apart from writing?

Hope you have as much fun here as I have had!

See you around,
