Hello!

Hellow everyone! I`m new to this kind of thing, a bit scared but after a few day`s of watching from a distance I`ve summed up the power to finally jouin in. It looks a little intimidating!
Well I`m from south Africa, I go by the name Rulani but I prefer to be called R.U. it`s simpler saying two letters than getting someone`s name wrong and I hate it when people get my god given name wrong. Hope to have a good time and I`m all for it (living tis life to the full). Wish you all a great time and hope to hear from you all.

Hey R.U.!

Welcome to YWS. I'm sure you will like it here and I'm looking forward to read some of your work. But what do you like to write? And what genre? ^^

I will probably see you later.

Hey R.U.! How are you? Welcome to YWS!!!

Here, have a cookie. **Hands cookie**

So, do you have a favourite author? colour? word? name? animal? drink? food? desert? place? sport? hobby?

Hope that's enough questions, and I would love to know the answers.

Anyway, have fun around the site, hope you are settling in nicely.

PM (personal message) me if you need any help, or would just like to chat.

Welcome!! **High-five**

Hey RU! I would like to formally welcome you to YWS! You can call me Stella or, well, whatever you want, to be honest, I'm not particularly picky.

Anyway, you're from South Africa? That's awesome. My hockey coach is South African and he's... *sigh* Well. I'm sure you get the idea. He's cool.

YWS isn't intimidating at all! I remember that feeling, but honestly, nobody here will give you any bother. If you're scared, the best thing you can do is get involved in the community, join some usergroups, meet some people. And above all, review. We love reviews. And helpful reviews, not "This was great, write more."

Just get posting and you'll fit in easy!

Anyway, everybody here will be happy to help, but my door is especially open if you need a hand with anything. Oh, and a quick note, members with green names are moderators, so if you need anything locked/deleted etc. just give them a shout.

So, I hope to see you around!

Hey R.U.! Welcome to YWS! I am new here also but everyone is amazingly nice! They made me feel comfortable early on. I understand your feeling of intimidation. It's ok, buddy. No need to worry. Just know everyone has the same love of writing like you do.

Well, my questions to you are: What significance does writing have in your life? How did it become special to you?

Lastly, I love making reviews so if you ever need something (reviews, questions, comments, or you just want a friend to talk to) I'm here for you. PM if anything. Enjoy your time here!

Much Love,
Chris

Hello R.U.!

Welcome to YWS! I promise you, no one's here to scare or intimidate you. We're all just here to have fun and further our craft, and to help others. If you want, you can pop by chat and get to know some of the people on here, make some friends. It might make you feel a little more confident.

I don't really have a question; everyone else seems to have tackled them all. So I'll leave you with saying that if you need any help with anything, don't hesitate to ask.

Ciao!
