Hello, everyone! I'm really happy to actually have found this website. I've been looking for a really long time to find somewhere to share my works. I have one thing that I'm working on right now. It's called Winning Over Winchester. If you want to read it, go to the other fiction tab in the forums.

Thanks!

Munch
Writing...writing is beyond amazing. Writing is imagination on paper. I love writing more than I can express.

Sounds like historical fiction. Give me a holler when you post the first part.

hey, welcome to the forums and all that stuff...

Its sort of unheard not to say that stuff ^^. :xd:

Hi, I am DayDreams, but I prefer to go by Dreams. Hopefully you have managed to navigate the site okay and have stumbled upon the most amazing section.... STORYBOOKS. If not seriously check them out they can inspire and you can have lots of fun on a boring day.

Mind telling us a bit more about yourself though? These are such simple prompts but try to answer because it shows us what kind of person you are...

Favorite color?
Pirates or Ninjas?
Do you think Snoink is crazy? (hehe answer even if you dont know who he is)
Favorite television show?
Play any sports?
Type of writer? (fantasy, sci-fi, artists, scriptwriter, poet, etc.)

Hi, Munchkin! Welcome to YWS! I'm Elinor, but you can call me Eli or Elin if you would like. You know, I felt the exact same way about YWS when I joined. I was so happy to find a place like this, and believe me, you've made a good choice.

So, you like The Wizard of Oz? I think it's alright, but I absolutley love Over the Rainbow. Your story sounds really cool. I think I might drop in for a review.

Anyway, please shoot me a PM if you have any questions about the site, okay?

Welcome to YWS!! :D

Hey, Munchkin! I seriously love your username. ^^
TIPS: Chat is a very good way to get to know people and get noticed (make friends!) on this site. It's also just a great place to be, where everyone is kind and nice. We have no bullies here. XD
If you ever need anything, just feel free to PM me. (Private Message). I'm always happy to help, and usually respond within that first day or two days afterwards.
Oh, and you can also have your own blog on here. Cool, eh? Share your life with us. Heheh.
And, of course, my signature question: do you like the rain, or the sun? I prefer rain, and it's raining where I am, so I'm just happy as can be...you can probably tell.
XD. So, welcome.

Favorite color? Orange and green.
Pirates or Ninjas? Ninjats. They're pirate ninjas. :) I can't pick just one!
Do you think Snoink is crazy? Of course I do...I think.
Favorite television show? Drake and Josh. Totally!
Play any sports? I used to swim, but now I'm a writer. Point taken?
Type of writer? I like writing stories that mix action/adventure and fantasy with everyday life. And I really enjoy historical fiction.
Favorite author? Kate DiCamillo. If you've read The Magician's Elephant, you know where the inspiration of Winning over Winchester came from. :)
Favorite food? Chocolate. And pizza. Mmmm...I want to try some chocolate pizza.
Favorite songs? Don't kill me, but I really happen to like Demi Lovato. My favorite songs by her are off of her debut album, Don't Forget. I really like this unheard of band called I Rival, too. I like all of their songs! If you go on their myspace, (http://www.myspace.com/irivalrock) you can hear them. And I like Fireflies by Owl City.
Favorite ice-cream flavour? Chocolate Malted Crunch from Rite-Aid, and coffee or chocolatey ice cream anywhere else.
Rain or shine? Rain. Oh, rain for sure. I love the water, so rain is awesome.

About me:
I'm a writer/musician. If you look in the lyrics section, there's a song called Oblivious. That's mine. I'm in a band, and that's actually one of our songs.
I'm working on another one with music and everything currently. So, that's basically a summary of what I like to do.

And I really like to write novels. One of my newest ones, other than Winning Over Winchester is At Dusk. I'm working on developing that one some more, so I don't know.

About WOW:
Winning over Winchester is a story about a beggar who lives in Winchester, England, around really late 19th, or early 20th century. The whole town is talking about this beggar, because he walks around the town and sings. There are some that hate him, some that love him, and some that sort of are indifferent.

That's all I really got.
Writing...writing is beyond amazing. Writing is imagination on paper. I love writing more than I can express.

Another thing you might find interesting about me is the fact that I did Nanowrimo in 2009. Of course, I did the YWP and wrote 35,000 words. Just follow this link for the YWP to know what it's all about: www.ywp.nanowrimo.org. It's really cool, and really challenging. And I have a proof copy of it in my house. I'm working on editing it. Then I'm going to publish it through createspace. It's going to be awesome!

Hello Munchkin!

Welcome to YWS!
I see that you have had the lo-down from everyone else. Ooh! I love Fireflies by Owl City, I listen to it when I'm stuck for ideas. I dunno it helps stimulate my brain or something. I'm going to do Nanowrimo this year and I am really looking forward to it :)
Good luck with getting yours published through createaspace!

See you around
~Lydia
Thinking about what you COULD achieve will get you no where. You've got to chase your dreams.

*squee*

You're a NaNoWriMo-er? O: YAY.

So yes. Welcome to YWS! You'll definitely find what you're looking for around here, so now all you have to worry about is having fun! Which it looks like you've already accomplished that, so you're a true YWSer!

Ooh, I have a writer friend who loves to swim! You swimmers I gotta respect. o_o

You write genres that I like! And that I like to write! We could be, like, clones. But not since I don't swim. But still. We'll go with it! I'll definitely have to stop by and see some of your stuff. :D

I'll totally see you around the site and stuff. If you get stuck, don't hesitate to send me a PM. I'm more than happy to help you out!
I make my own policies.
