Hi! I'm new here. I've been writing for four years, but I'm still trying to figure out my style and make my stories work, so I tinker and change things a lot. Despite that, I really love writing, and I do it a lot.

I'm still kind of new to the whole website thing, mostly because I'm not very good with computers, so please be patient with me; I'll adapt eventually. Other than that, I'm looking forward to making friends and getting help with my stories; thanks in advance for the aid you'll be lending me!

Hello Mossyra. Welcome to YWS!

I've been writing for a few years, myself, and I always find my work improving! My style developed from reading books and studying how those authors structured their novels. And don't worry--I tinker and change things all the time!

As for writing...we all love it! ;)

Here's a few helpful links, just to get you started:
--I suggest reading the YWS FAQ first, as it should answer most of your basic questions.
--Another look at the rules and guidelines can be found here.
--Community forums can be found here.
--Interested in groups? Check them out here!

Well, that should give you an idea of the YWS community. Of course, you can always PM me if you have any questions or if you're feeling lost!

Now, time to tell me a bit about yourself!
--Favorite color?
--Favorite book?
--How about movie?
--Most preferred genre of fiction? :D

Hey, you! You reviewed my story! >.< Thanks for that!

And welcome to the site. :) I'm sure you'll like it, and judging by the review you gave me, you're going to do well here. ^^

As for style... My style changes pretty much on an hourly basis. XD You have plenty of time to figure it out. And tinkering with things is one of the best things about writing! It's how you find the best story you can write. ^^

I'm sure you'll catch onto the site quick. It's pretty simple. :)

Now, as firefly said, time to tell us about yourself!

-- Favorite waffle topping.
-- Favorite person you've met on YWS so far. (Actually, you don't have to answer this one. We all know who it is... ;) <-)
-- Favorite rodent.
-- Favorite show about a little hispanic girl who goes on adventures with a monkey named after an article of clothing, often breaking the fourth wall and asking the audience absurdly ridiculous questions.
-- Favorite "What's your favorite..." question so far.
"Pay Attention. Pay Close Attention to everything, everything you see. Notice what no one else notices, and you'll know what no one else knows. What you get is what you get. What you do with what you get is more the point. -- Loris Harrow, City of Ember (Movie)

Heyheyhey! Welcome to YWS!!

I'm the site's unofficial resident furry...(be careful! I'm craaaaazy!) Ever need something to review? I always have the time!

Now, MY questions...hehe:

1: Favorite animal?
2: Favorite game (outdoors, board game, video game, etc.)
3: If I asked you to send me $50 to save my life, would you do it? :P
4: Favorite celebrity?

Uhh...I guess that is it for now. Again, welcome and we hope you have a blast!

Thanks!

Wow, lots of questions. My favorite color is blue, my favorite book changes just about every time I read a book, favorite movie is a similar problem, and most preferred genre of fiction is fantasy, which seems to concern one of my sisters. My favorite waffle topping is ice cream, especially chocolate (I love chocolate); my favorite rodent is probably a squirrel;and my favorite "What's your favorite" question so far is this one. My favorite animal is a cat, my favorite game is probably soccer, I'm not really familiar with any celebrities, and I don't know if I'd send you $50 to save your life. I'd probably forget--I have forgetting things down to almost an art.

How about you guys?
