Hello there, everyone! I was just browsing around for a writing forum recently and decided that this one would fit me more, seeing I'm still pretty much of an amateur writer and critique would be most appreciated... I'm pretty much a fan of fantasy stories and read quite a fair bit of them, now getting closer to obsession (sadface).

Oh, and you can call me Samp.

Hi, Samp! Welcome to YWS! :D
Don't worry about being obsessed, some people here are extremely obsessed with certain stories or genres...not that I'm one of them. XD
When I first started reading, I was completely on fantasy, LOTR mostly, but now I even my reading out with Sci-fi and realistic fiction.
Anyways, send me a PM if you've got any questions.

Hey there Samp! Welcome!

Yay fantasy! I share that addiction with you. It's just so fun to write fantasy, isn't it? And I'm sure you'll find plenty of others here who share the same love of the genre. :)

So what do you like to write? Short stories or novels? Do you write anything other than fantasy? What do you like to read?

I hope you enjoy the site! If you have any questions feel free to shoot me a PM :)

Welcome again!

Hey! Welcome to the forum!

I really enjoy fantasy as well. Such an interesting genre, right? xD
I'm fairly new as well, but so far, I'm really enjoying it here! Hope to see you around!

Personally, I prefer writing and reading short stories when they're digital since having to stare at a screen all day is rather hard on my eyes... I do enjoy thrillers, too, which was what I was reading before I actually went into fantasy. It's quite intriguing =o

I like to think I'm a good reviewer. ^-^ Just post a comment on my wall or shoot a PM(private message) my way. I'll be quick to get back to you and help you in the best way I can -promise. :D

Well, all that being said, I hope you enjoy the site, and welcome again! See you around, Samp.
