I only joined YWS yesterday, so hopefully I can figure out the basics soon enough. I'm not much of a writer usually, but I've been getting into it heaps lately. I'm glad this site doesn't allow slang because I'm getting a bit sick of it...

Um, hi! It's nice to meet you guys. Well, my username is obviously prepareyourself2 but I prefer to be called Spera, which is my nickname in real life. So... nice to meet you again. And... okay, I have nothing else to say. Bye!
Hello, everyone. I am Tomoko, and I am an artist. I work with digital art and animation, and often draw up concept art, draw manga, make 3D animations, or video games, and I also write short stories, scripts, manga storylines, music, and roleplay. I am a proud enigma of society. I am learning both Spanish and Japanese, and can write and speak a fair amount of both. I am frequently playing either Rock Band games on my XBOX 360 or World of Warcraft on my PC. I have a bookshelf of 191 manga as of now, as well as an endless archive of music in the genres of Rock, Metal, Visual Kei, Hardstyle, Gabber, Speedcore, Industrial, and Trance.
I came to the Young Writer's Society by refference of someone in my Computer Graphics class. In fact, I'm typing this introduction in that class right now (Although I should be working on my art portfolio). I hope I can use this site as a place to archive the assortment of things I write up, and share them with other people.
The material I write is sometimes graphic in both violence and language... I hope that's all right. I've read about the rating system for submitting writings, so you don't have to worry about that. I write in a vast range of genres. I like writing stories of horror and suspense (inspired throughout my life by the most amazing Japanese and Korean horror stories), storylines for my manga (one example being one that I'm working on that is a rebel/cyberpunk theme, another being about a strange necromancer girl and a boy who is fused with a demonic parasite, and yet another that I'm writing in tandem with my art partner that is about a kid who finds himself having to carry out the work of the Grim Reaper while also trying to live a normal life), and occasional stories about my roleplay characters from RPHaven.com and World of Warcraft.
So, hello, world!
Also, I'd like to ask... Are there any sections of this website for roleplay?

Welcome Tomoko, love your avatar by the way. WOW, you do all those thing, that's awesome! And to answer your question about the whole role play check out the storybooks.

Hey, I'm new here, too. So far all I have been doing is reviews... I've been kinda nervous about posting any of my work online. I hope that every one will enjoy them and I will get great tips on how to better my writing skills.

Don't be nervous, Hydey! If you can review works, you can post them. We're all in the same boat here. ^___^ Let me know if you have any questions, okay? And welcome to the site! 8D
you can message me with anything: questions, review requests, rants are you a green room knight yet? have you read this week's Squills?
Heya, Tomoko! It's me, the guy sitting right behind you now.
Glad you could join. There are about... a whole lot of new posts in each section every day, so you can use the search bar up at the top to look up things quickly. (like i just did to find you) Some words are too general to look up, like new, (there a probably... a whole lot of posts with the word "new" in them) but if you type in the name of you post or the one you want to look at it should be fine.
Hi everyone! I'm new and confused! I am something of a novice when it comes to both writing and internet societies like this so I'm still trying to get my head around everything.
I have submitted something already however and any feedback would be much obliged!
