Hey there, Robbin! I'm rather new, as well, but I can tell you the folks here are really nice. They'll generally give you an honest opinion, but they're pretty gentle about it. I've gotten some very helpful critiques so far.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask (I'm still not 100% used to the site, but I know the basics). And if you'd like me to check out your work, let me know.
Hope to see you around!
I aim to misbehave.

We are sooo glad to have you on our site, it actually isn't that hard, once you master it, and all of us are like awesome. (Not bragging, but we are. there is no denying it.) It’s a great way to meet other writers and, of course get reviews on your own work, and review others. You would not believe how much I've improved, and I haven't even been here a year!!
Do you need some help though, getting to know the site?
Well, I have a club that'll help you.
page_discussions.php?id=1131&type=3&topic_id=70213&post_id=0 Just click that link, and then do you see the little icon underneath my avatar or picture or signature? Click that and fill in the blanks on the chart. Then hit send. We'll get you a mentor, and that person can help you out with getting to know the site!!
(also, we have a review request thread, and that should help with your nervousness. and DONT WORRY!)
First of all, love your avatar! Obviously you have to be a bit tough when you put your work out into the cyber-world, but I think that you'll find that everyone here knows how to give a constructive, kind critique. If you give nice reviews, they will too! YWS is just a group of goofy nerdy people who love to write. Don't worry about the reception your pieces have--because it won't be a problem! And you'll see that soon enough. So don't be afraid to put yourself out there! If you need anything feel free to pm me!

PS. I think Robbin is a really pretty name!
