Welcome New Members! [2]

Snoink · 2009-01-17T19:40:27Z

Hello and welcome to the site! We're glad to meet you. You can use this thread to talk to fellow newbies or whatever, or you can make your own post and get welcomed individually. We don't care. :P Anyway, as you probably guessed, this is a writing forum and we have thousands of members! Yet we're a really close bunch and we love everybody. ^^ I'm Snoink! I do have another name, but seriously, everybody knows me as Snoink. I'm a moderator of YWS (all moderators have green/red names), which means I help run things here. It's a kind of big site at first, but it's really fun, so don't worry. ^^ Almost all the members are wonderful people and if you bug them with questions, they'll be ready to help you with really anything at all. Also, if you encounter any problems, don't be afraid to contact the moderators (we're the ones with green names!) or the administrators (they're in red!) We're here to help you. :) Now, just to lay down rules, guidelines, and stuff: :arrow: We like proper English. That is, we don't substitute "da" for "the," we don't say "im" for "I'm," we don't say "u" for "you," and we expect you to capitalize each word of every sentence in your regular posts. Typos can happen, but don't start talking like you're texting. We're crazy like that. :arrow: We like black text. You'll see a bunch of people with crazy colored fonts... but they're weird. :P Stick with black and I'll love you forever. :arrow: We want you to rate your story or poem. That way, it can show up on the front page and everybody can see it. ^_^ If you have an f-word in your story or it's particularly explicit, rate it 18+. It won't show up on the front page, but people will know what they're getting into. Okay. So now that's done. XD Now, mingle! :D

Hi! I'm new and glad to be here! Writing is a wonderful thing, and I hope to improve with all of these YWS supporters.

And I really need help. Do you know how long it took me to figure out how to review? :wink:

Kind of embarrassing.

Hi everybody, I'm TheAmazon. I'm incredibly stunned right now, I have no idea where to even start on this site haha. I love writing, mostly just poetry, because I have committment issues with even short stories-I can never finish them without having a mental breakdown. I love talking to people, I love intense criticism, and I think I'll like this site!

Thanks for all the welcomes - they really help! I feel much more at home now. I've applied for a mentor to help along the learning process and I'm burning to get writing and reading - literature is life!

Hi!

I'm new to this site, but it seems really cool, plus everyone seems so nice and genuinely helpful when it comes to writing and giving critique. That's probably good, for me, because I love writing but I'm usually too nervous to let anyone read it

Definitely looking forward to posting something soon.

Well, although I'm not entirely sure how all this works. I figured why not sound my barbaric yawp, so, hello.

Let's run in some circles, mate.

Hello,

Everyone can call me SkullCandi. I just became a member to this site yesterday, and I'm proud to say someone is already helping me with my first ever written story.

It was very helpful tips, but I get a little depressed

, because I second guess myself, and wonder if I every will become a famous author (my goal). These tips remind of how inexperience I am, but at the same time its helping me a lot!

I'm really glad to have become a member, because truly I believe that the people here will help me reach my goal in becoming a famous author. Thank You!

Welcome! I hope you love it here as much as I do. Let me know if you have any questions, or need anything at all~

Also, your avatar makes me feel so Irish. I love it.

Hello everybody!This is Gawrav Mehta from India.

Yeah! India where English is maybe third or fourth tongue. So, you can guess quality of my work.I'm new to this site, but it seems really cool, plus everyone seems so nice and genuinely helpful when it comes to writing and giving critique. That's probably good, for me, because I love writing but I'm usually too nervous to let anyone read it because of my stupid grammatical mistakes. Writing is a wonderful thing, and I hope to improve with all of these YWS supporters. And I really need help. Do you know how long it took me to figure out how to review? Kind of embarrassing because I can’t find errors.

Constructive Criticisim will be taken into a lot of consideration.
