Hello. I'm new here :)

Hi there. I'm Daniella.
I'm [s]13[/s] 12 years young. I'm turning thirteen this March. I like making fictional stories and also friends!
So friends?

lol! freaky coincidence my name is danielle... strange... what kinda stuff do you like to write about?

Hi Danielle! I like writing fictional stories and FFs. I'm currently making a story right now.. What about you?

Hello Daniella! I'm Vyper, and welcome to YWS! Of course silly. Friends are always nice. Anyway, before you start posting your works, I'd better go over some of the rules. They are located here. But, if you don't feel like reading it all, I'll put down the two most famous ones here:

1. Keep the 2:1 review ratio. That means you have to review two works before you can put one of your own up on the site. After that, you can post as much as you want, but it's appreciated if you keep the review: work ratio to at least 2:1.

2. Use proper grammar, spelling, and capitalization. That means no chat/netspeak. It is sometimes painful to read that, so it's common courtesy.

That's it for the rules. Now, some of us members have differently colored usernames, so here we go:

Black: Regular Members.
Blue: Greeters, who greet you and answer any questions you might have about the site.
Purple: Instructors who give you in-depth critiques.
Light Green: They are Junior Moderators, who have moderating powers in some forums.
Dark Green: Regular moderators who have moderating powers in all the forums.
Red: Site administrators who keep the site up and running.
Orange: They are distinguished members, retired mods.

Well, that's it for colors. There's a guide at the bottom of the page if it gets too confusing. And that's all I have for now in the explaining part of the job. Time for the interrogation!

What do you like to write?
What and who do you like to read?
What are your other hobbies?
What about interests in music? Movies?
What's your favorite color?
What do you want to be when you grow up?

Yeah, I think that's it. Well, feel free to PM me for anything you need. Friendship, questions, or reviews. Hope to see you and your work around. See ya!

i like to write fantasy and sometimes FFs. i like to write poetry too but when i do it tends to be a little whiny so i don't post it places.


what is your story you are working on about?

Ohh It's more about investigating something. I'm not yet done with the concepts.
BTW, How can I make reviews?

lol i just figured out how to do that! you go to writing which is at the top of your screen and then dont click it and a drop down menu appears the first thing on the drop down menu is read & review click on that then choose what ever you wanna read. then go to the bottom and like review it =]

Oh thanks for the helped. I made one review

Awesome! Glad you're getting used to the site! So, the basic things you should know how to do :
Review - You already know how to do that
Write & Submit a Piece - After you've done at least two reviews, then you should click the button submit something, which is right under the read and review button. Click whatever genre you're going to write, and then submit your first piece! Every piece you write takes 150 points to post.
Friending people - Go to their profiles and at the top near their list of friends click add!
I think that's it, feel free to PM me if you have any questions!

Hiya and welcome!

Another note on reviews: They must be at least three lines long, or else they don't count. The upside is that the more you can find in other's works, the more you can improve your own work. ^_^

And my little sales pitch on rated works! Rated works (unless rated R) show up on the front page of YWS for all to see! You might even get more comments. Rated R works have the f-word and/or graphic scenes.

Also, when you submit a piece, you get points back. Usually 50 for a work of literature, and other genres like poetry and art depend on how long things are.

If you have any questions, PM me.
