Hello there, random strangers!

I'm a 16-year-old aspiring writer trying to write my own novel while also handling the crazy assessments my teachers keep giving me. I started out as a reader, actually. I read a lot of books, and when I got into junior high school, I started getting the urge to write my own stories. I've still got a lot to learn, though, but that's why I'm here -- to learn from the experts! That and I'm also going to be leeching for ideas. Just kidding ... mostly.

I don't hope to get to know all of you better, since I won't be able to know all of you, but I do hope to get to know some of you better! Let's not be random strangers, eh? :D

Hi!

I'm Emily. Nice to meet you, Razzker! Welcome to the site! First off, I hope you like it here. This place is cool, and the people are really nice.

So, is there any specific genre or whatnot that you like to write?
Favorite, color?
Type of music?
Animal?

I can't wait to see your posts around the site!
Well, I guess we're not random strangers anymore... :smt023 Yeah.

Feel free to PM me if you have any questions on the site or just have nothing better to do.

Hey there Razz-stranger,

Welcome to young writer's, I'm Tanya. This site can seem a bit daunting at first but we're all here to help you out whenever you need it. We're a friendly bunch. Mostly ;)

The surest way to get around quickly is to visit the forums, get a few reviews under your belt, see how the reviews go, and post your own work. Then you can ask the people who you reviewed for to review for you. Simple, isn't it?

PM me if you need any extra help, I'm always lurking about :D

Tanya

I enjoy writing and reading all kinds of fictional pieces or novels, so long as it's written well and I find it interesting!

I'll look around some more now, not-so-random-strangers-anymore! I've actually reviewed two short stories already. : )

Oh, and thanks! Yeah, the site does look pretty big. It'll take some time to get used to the place. I just wish I had found this place sooner ... it would've helped me so much with my own writing.

Hi, Raz!

Welcome to YWS! :D How are you enjoying it so far? Heh, it's good that you have well-rounded tastes when it comes to books! I like to read a lot, too. Do you have any favorite books/authors, though? Do you play any video games? It's good you found this site, though! It really does help your writing improve soo much. If there's anything you find confusing, or just want to talk, don't be afraid to shoot me a PM!

Haha! Teachers can try to kill you with all the school work, can't they? :)

I think it's awesome that you started writing through reading. What kinds of stories do you write? Like, what genre would you say it would be?

Also, if you need any help, feel free to bug me. :)
