I've always beein 'quite the writer', so states my family, and they urged me to stop 'goofing off' on Game forums and join a 'Writer's Forums', and here I am.
If 2012 really is the end of the world, I need my book published now.
I'm SiSi. I'm 13 and in the 7th grade. What about you? Anyway, here are the rules, even though you've probably already seen them...
1) 4:1 Ratio. This means that for every story you post, you need to do 4 reviews. The Administration would like everyone to do at least 3:1, but to be safe, 4:1 works out. (And it's not that hard, either...just say what you liked and didn't like about the particular piece of writing and probably give the author some suggestions)
2) Plz no cht spk AND NO TYPING IN CAPS!! Both are rude and annoying, unless you use capitals in a story. Going along with that, we expect you to have pretty decent grammar. (Correct punctuation, spelling, etc.) And also, please no excessive punctuation. (?!!?)
3) Be nice. There's no swearing/cursing allowed unless it's in one of your stories, and no purposely hurting other users on YWS. This also goes for reviews--don't go too hard on the author, especially not if they're a newbie like you.
4) Rate your stories. Is it appropriate for E, (Everyone) 12+, 16+, 18+, or is it rated R? A lot of users, including me, get annoyed when people don't rate their posts properly. (Like, if you hint at a swear word in any post, rate it at least 12+)
Those are the basic rules here on YWS. Oh yeah...and don't forget to have fun!!
Now, on to the questions!! (Mwa ha ha ha ha...)
Favorite color? Author? Genre to read? Genre to write? Love YWS yet? Tired of answering questions?

Thanks for the welcoming, and I like this forum much more than my last one. Answers to any of your questions: What's your favorite Movie?: The Dark Knight (R.I.P Heath Ledger) Hair color?: Brown Song?: Black Masks and Gasoline by Rise Against (You have to hear, it's amazing) Do you have any hobbies?: I enjoy image editing, writing fiction stories about US history, writing poems, and nature. Favorite color?: Gray, although I've been told that's not really a color, so probably dark green. Authors?: Oh my gosh, I don't know, probably Erin Hunter, J.K Rowling, Robert Frost, Bruce Coville, and Richard Peck. I love them all! Genre to read?: Mythical fiction, history, and, I have to admit, romance. Genre to write?: Suspense, adventure, and romance. Love YWS yet?: It's lots of fun, so far. Tired of answering questions?: No, I love filling out forms!
