Hi, the name's Horseradish! (not really--but hey, I had to think of something.) I'm quite random and my writing seems to scare a lot of people (and I by THAT, I mean that when some of my friends read my work, they cry--SERIOUSLY. It's not even that sad! They're a bunch 'a wimps, hopefully you all aren't.) I've been writing for awhile, probably since.... I was five or something, when I composed this terrible poem about what I'd do if I had million dollars (and I swear to Jesus, you do NOT want to read that poem. Ever.) and then it flipped to short stories... Which began with a spectacular ditty about a swamp monster killing like twenty people up on Lake Eerie (SEE: told you. The scariness. I wrote that when I was seven, and my parents found it humorous [they are even MORE insane than I am, really.]) Then, I wrote just random stuff no one should really ever care about, until I got to eighth grade, where I got deluged in this writing club called "Power of the Pen". Nearly went to State in writing competitions--and that was back when I sucked at writing--ha ha. Frightened everyone there too, especially when I wrote a new twist on Sweeney Todd (evilness, I know). Then, gradually, I sank into a state of perpetual darkness...and my writing suddenly got better! Wow! The craziness of that. So, yeah, I'm really kooky and I'm not quite sure of my mental stability (my main man friend suggests that I'm either bipolar or schizophrenic--but who really knows. I was probably just dropped too many times on my head when I was a kid.) But, whatever. I've got like a HUGE shack full of poetry, a small portfolio of short stories, and I've completed two novels so far in my sixteen years. Whoop. Be proud of me strangers--I've completed things. Take me for what I am: a writer, a lover (not, ha ha), and a born crazy.

Heya Horseradish!

Ja, cute username! And OMG! You have written a lot. (I end up finishing stuff in my head; too lazy to write them down. And then came Word!) Well, keep writing! I's love to read some of your stuff here on YWS.
Oh and Kookines is definitootley awesome! You can't go wrong with that.

Oh and you can be sure to have fun on YWS!

Okay.

Hello there!

I have to agree with Lava, a good username it is! Anyways, I'm really jealous of you since you've written things when you were still four and I began to write short stories when I was thirteen. Yep, am too old. haha. I think YWS can be your 'second' good school. I'm saying this because it teaches me to become better at improving my literary skills. I'm a century late to say this but congratulations for all the competitions you've won. I'm glad you found this site and I'm happy too if we'll be good friends. I'm assuming, alright. Whatever. I would just like to say that you'll find this a- not-so-ordinary site where you can just simply publish things like that. No, imagine a big building with a YWS name on it. :wink:

Also I have two tips for you:

1. If you don't review stories/poem or anything, you won't get reviews!
2. Enjoy!

Also, I would recommend that you visit the uh-mazing Chatroom, just found in YWS homepage. You can meet and greet or even gain new friends there. :D

Last but not the least... Welcome to YWS!!

PM me for questions or anything.

Hopes to see you around soon. :D

Peace out!

Welcome to YWS!

Wow, you've done a lot! Keep it up! Who cares if you're crazy, we're all a little crazy around here. ^.^ I'm sure you will find many people here that will share your interest in writing scary things. And a lake monster in Lake Erie? Neat. :) There probably could be some sort of mutated creature up there, haha.

Anyways, welcome fellow crazy writer. I hope you find YWS to be everything you need and more.

Welcome! I believe we are all a little crazy here at YWS, so nothing to worry about! Wow, two novels? That's impressive! I am hoping to finish my first one over the summer. What were your novels about? Have you posted one on here? I look forward to your pieces!

Have fun!
It's writing prompt week on my blog a very random pickle!:

What I'm wondering is how you make Sweeney Todd any more gruesome than it is...?

BUT Either way, I love gruesome things! So, in turn, I love you! And welcome to the forums of course. ;-) I have used up my allotted amount of exclamation points. Pity.

Anyway, I'd love to dig through your poetry whenever you get it up. Or your short stories. You sound like a real interesting person. :) Hope you stick around, and if you have any questions feel free to bug me.

Yay! Yeah, if anyone can make Sweeney Todd more frightening, we're keeping you. But yes, welcome to our humble site where we write and laugh.....*shiny objects*

Oh yeah, Random. Anyway, welcome to YWS and if you have any questions or need help feel free to shoot me a PM or Suzanne. Or anyone else who commented before me. I think you'll enjoy it here.

Hey there, Horse! And welcome to YWS. I hope you're enjoying it here. :D
Yeah, we're all a bit crazy here, but we have a great excuse, our common ground is that we are writers. Woo-hoo, dudes! XD. It sounds like you've been writing a lot, and that's great. Practice makes perfect, cliche as it sounds.
If you ever need anything, feel free to PM me. I am not a wimp unless we are concerning spiders and or wasps. In that case, I will go hide under a rock.
Lolz.
Always smile,
Mizz :)
