Hey so I'm a newbie and I thought I'd introduce myself. :) I'm Susie and I come from a small town. I'm very excited and nervous about joining this site. I love to read and write. I am obsessed with Percy Jackson and The Hunger Games! I got into writing about a year ago, and since have written various pieces for myself. Now I'm happy to share my writing with fellow writers :) I'm grateful for anyone who will give the new girl a word of advice! :)

Hey, Susie!

Welcome aboard. It's a pleasure to have you here with us.

Ah, another The Hunger Games fan? :D So what do you like the most about the series? What sets you on?

What do you like writing the most? Short stories or novels? Have you finished any novel? And what are your other hobbies? Sorry being so pesky with the questions. lol

If you have any problem on the site, or have any question you can PM(private message) the Mods(in light green) or GMs(Global Moderators) and they'll help you out. And I'd be more than happy to help you, if need arises. :3

There's just this one simple formula here-review more so more people review you. As much as it's important to put up your work for reviewing, it's also important to help others out and review them. Not only they are helped by it, even you learn a lot.

We have this Chat Room where you can meet other awesome YWSers and make new friends.

There's this WRFF where you can ask people to review your work. It's really helpful, believe me.

Hoping to see you around,
Mia

And BTW, drop me a PM if you ever need anything to be reviewed, except for fan-fic and poetry. xD!

Why hello there Susie,
Welcome, and I hope it's been a warm one. You don't have a lot to be nervous of, everyone here is rather accepting.
Hunger Games, you say? I'm pretty much in love with those books. What got you started on it?
You're so new to writing, and that just makes me smile. What types of things do you like writing? (Fiction, nonfiction, teen drama, etc?) Have you posted any stories/novels yet (I'd LOVE to read them/it.)
Just like Mia said, PM the mods if you need any help, they're here for that sort of thing.
I hope to read your work soon!
Rayne

P.S. I'll review anything, if you wish, just shoot me a PM :)
Happy Writing!

Elloello Susie!

I hope YWS has been treating you well! It's a crazy fun place where you can learn a lot about writing.

Let me know if you need any help/reviews.

Cheers,
Lava
