Hey there Matthew, and welcome to Young Writers Society! My name is Heather, but your free to call me anything you want (I'm often called Arris, Arrish, Fire, etc).
To get started posting your own writing, click the “Submit” tab. If you want to read other works or critique, go to the “Discover Works” tab and find a category that you'd like to look at. It might take awhile to learn it all, but you'll likely get used to it! ^.^ Feel free to let me know if you ever have any questions or want any critiques – I critique just about anything. Below are a few things that I suggest you look at, so that way you understand the rules of the site and you can also get any help you need.
Questions and Answers – Like the other two, this is great to check out. You can ask questions here and get help from other members, or you can help members later on. You can also look at previously asked questions. =D
The Knowledge Base – This is another great place to check out. You can see several guides and tips regarding writing, and post your own with the approval of a moderator. =]
Now that we got that out of the way, I have questions for you! (See, we are silly people here, so we often ask lots of questions to get to know you)
Where are you from? What is your favorite food? Favorite animal and color? Do you have siblings or pets?
Anyways, welcome to the site, and I hope things go well for you. As I mentioned earlier, you are free to private message me for anything you need. =D
Good luck, have fun!
~Heather
