How did you find the Young Writers Society?

I found out about the site from Alice. She told me about it on Yahoo messenger back in March 2007. I like this site a lot. Even though I was quite the trouble maker in my early days of the site.

-Rick.

Crimson posted a link on another forum. Thanks to her!

Yeah, it was mentioned a couple o times on another forum I'm on, too

I was just randomly googling for a place you could post your writings... And tadah!

I get this newsletter from the English department at my college every month or so. Awhile back (last year) it mentioned how someone got published on some e-magazine called Toasted Cheese. Recently I remembered that...then on that site it mentioned how it was one of the 101 best sites for writers on Writers Digest. So I looked at that list saw a link to this site and was curious...

I'm on fictionpress but the "reviews" there aren't really helpful at all. I guess they're more like a self-esteem booster. But yeah, I'm liking this site better.

i got here though Stumble! (a weird program that my brother put on my computer, when you push the Stumble button it brings you to random sites!) and well i liked what i saw so i joined! javascript:emoticon(':D')
Very Happy

I was sick of asking my friends for feedback of my poems, so I Googled 'Young Writers', i clicked on it, liked it, the rest is history.

Google actually.


Funny that.
like on the 4th page, searching for young writers forums.

errr...

I found it in google when I searched for young writers groups. I'd emailed the author Jodi Picoult (She's my favourite) and she told me there were many online groups out there for young writers. So I googled I hadn't realized these groupd existed online, silly me

Some others came up in the search too but YWS was the best one !

XxxDo

I was looking for a good website to post my works and get some critiques. I had a lot but none, so far, is up to par to YWS.

Just like many others here, I was googling around and then I eventually found this website.

Ummm...I don't actually remember. I think I may have found it through Google or another writing site. I was basically just browsing around and looking for something to do.

I was looking for a place to submit my writing to get feedback or just to get my name out there and I stumbled unto this after a few hours. I stopped looking after that and I'm very satisfied so far.

I was on writing.com. Then got disillusioned with the lack of feedback. I then browsed for young writer's forums [or something like that] and found this to best out of the ones I found. Woop.

I typed in "Young writers" on google search, and YWS was the first hit.
