THE SQUILLS FAN CLUB

written by SquillsBot < PM: >

I've heard your human screams. You ask, "Why are the threads locked after posting? Where are we supposed to say how many grammatical errors and typos we counted or ask questions about the veracity of the facts in the fature article?" You ask, "If I want lemonade and brownies, which one should I eat first to avoid funky tastes?" You ask, "How can I praise Squills writers without getting too personal and actually going all the way to their walls?"

And I answer: The Squills Fan Club !

Join to start and participate in discussions of this week's articles! Leave constructive feedback for the Squills staff, or worship them with false idols! Ask random questions about your eating habits that make no sense! Whatever you want to do, this club is for you.

Squills would be nothing without its readers, so thank you. And join. Or else.

THE DEFINITIVE GUIDE TO MAKING FRIENDS ON YWS, PART ONE

written by Hannah  < PM: >

    It's not that there is a secret microphone in your mind recording your recurring thoughts:
    
       
            
     I mean, at least we didn't find any when we did a sweep with a Secret Microphone Detector. It's just that as isolated as you can sometimes feel, there are a lot of people out there who feel just as isolated as you do. 
     
        And it's ridiculous.
         
        Saying "we're all lonely" is a little like saying "everything is relative". At first, it sounds pretty reasonable, but then you realize if everything is relative, how could you give an ultimate generalization like that? You feel me? 
        
        So now that we agree it's ridiculous, what are we going to do about it?
        
        We're going to learn exactly how to make friends on YWS.
        
        The secret is that you have to get involved. It's possible to use YWS by its bones: review, receive reviews, log off. The points system is set up to be interactive and responsive enough that you could, potentially, be satisfied just earning and spending points. 
        Obviously it's not exclusively that barebones. As @xxFleetingEternity says,
        
       

   
 
        
        But if you play for points, that's a little like living life to just earn and spend money.
        
        
        Before we go further, I want to be clear that it is not shameful to have trouble making friends. What's shameful is that, before this moment, you've never had a definitive guide to help you along. 
        
        Let's work our way up, from the technique with the least effort for those of you who just want to test the waters, to the more advanced and involved ideas for members who already have a pretty good grasp on the system. 
        
        Please note difficulty and intensity levels will vary from member to member, based on things like social anxiety or past experiences. You know yourself better than I. Take care of yourself.
       
        
       
         
        
       Do you know @Nate? Do you know how he likes his coffee and his before-bed habits? Do you know what his perfect Christmas gift would be? Do you know where he wants to retire?
       
       Well, GOOD! You don't have to know all of that! You just have to know that he is the heart that pumps blood through all the coding and most of the features of YWS. He's the man behind such great changes as the Sokka Sequential. The mastermind who brought you  the easy sign-up page for Secret Santa this past Christmas in July. He's the guy who thought up the idea to make YWS in the first place.
       
       And what's extra great about him is that he doesn't work like the "Wizard" in Wizard of Oz. He doesn't hide behind a curtain and conduct everything on his lonesome. He wants you to be involved!
       
     
       
       Members like @ArcticMonkey (along with many others before her) are wondering why they don't get notifications for replies to their reviews, and with member feedback from users like @carbonCore, Nate is able to fix the bug and get the much-awaited system online.
       
     
       
       @AriaAdams desires a place to see all her past reviews, and she receives it.
       
       
       
       @Blackwood lets Nate know that WriterFeed Pad is down, and not more than twenty minutes later, Nate shows up to fix it.
             
       I mean, I could go on. But what it boils down to is: Follow Nate. He make lots of useful status updates. Speak up when you have something to say. Listen when others have something to say. Follow threads like -- and the bug report thread. Support ideas you believe in, and if it works for YWS and is not a huge bunch of work for one person, you may just see results.
       
       What does this have to do with making friends? YWS is your community site. When you know what's going on with it, you're involved with and up-to-date on the changes, you'll be able to celebrate with your fellow members about it and feel closer to the community without even having to talk to anyone yet.
       
       
         
       
        Click this link. Just trust me.
        
        See that? Those are clubs? Clubs are based around common interests or goals, which means that when you decide to subscribe to a club, you are joining a group of members already guaranteed to have a similar interest or mind set to yours. Is there a better place to make friends? 
        
        The best part? You're not required to post! If you're feeling up to it, yeah, dive right in, but if you're not you've got plenty of status updates and discussion posts to read and ease yourself into it.
        
        When members of YWS were asked about what they'd recommend new members to do for getting involved, clubs were the most mentioned feature!
        
        @wholesomereader says,
        
       

   


        @whitewolfpuppy says,
        
       

   

        
        Hey, come on. There's a pokemon club. What's scary about animated monsters fighting and never dying and living most of their lives in very small plastic sphere homes on humans' belts?!
        
     
           

    Chat. A big scary place with lots of strangers who could say anything in real time. Right? According to @whitewolfpuppy ...
    
   

   

    
    WRONG.
    
    And now you might be yelling, 
    "But I don't know how to chat with people!"
    or
    "Whenever I try to chat, people always ignore me!"
    
    But you must not know the secret. The secret is, before you start chatting, you'll probably have to lurk and read for about 15 minutes. Watch what's going on, and who's involved. How do they talk? When do they go to new subjects? Are there any members who seem to be ignored, and if so, why do you think they are?
    
    The best time to jump in is when you have something to say that is related to the current topic. If someone asks an open question like,
    
        "Y'all, what's your favorite ice cream?"
        
        Then you can get up in there and be like,
        
        "I love mint chocolate chip more than I love Harry Potter."
        
        And witness the gasps and whispering that goes on. You've just started a conversation:
        
                    "Would you say you love mint chocolate chip ice cream more than Hermione specifically? Or just the Harry Potter series?"
                    
                    "Do you maybe also love neopolitan ice cream more than Harry Potter?"
                    
        Chat is super valuable because you can make friends in real time. With reviews, the author you're writing to might never reply, which makes it all really one-sided. In addition, all you have to talk about with that person is maybe the piece of writing, so when you've exhausted that topic, will you continue on to the fabled friendship?
        
        Chat's also a little less intense, because you can leave any time you want. Remember that. If you feel uncomfortable or angry or bored, you can leave. Any time you want.
        
     Now, in case it wasn't clear to you while reading this, no difficulty level discussed so far has gone over one. We're really starting you off easy. These are relatively painless measures toward making friends. If you haven't taken one of these steps yet, what's stopping you? SquillsBot the Mighty dares you to!             
            
        Alright, alright. That's enough for today. Join us next week for Part Two, where we punch up the intensity level and make OVER NINE THOUSAND FRIENDS*.
        
        * This would not be as fun as it sounds, because studies show humans can basically only handle a group of 150 acquaintances.
       

BLOGGING ON YWS

written by Sapi < PM: >

Blogging is becoming more and more important in the world. YWS, too, has its very own wonderful system of blogs that allows people to share their ideas, rants, updates, or anything really, and have them be viewed by anyone who takes an interest. If you haven't yet found Blogs , they are a great part of the YWS community.

To find out a little bit about how much YWSers are involved in these blogs, I asked 30 randomly-picked members how much they posted their own and how much they read other people's blog entries. See the results below and the participants in the spoiler.

Data:

Spoiler

Post only once in a while, or used to post: 13
Post often: 1
Have never posted as of yet: 16
Read, but not often: 18
Read often: 7
Never read: 5

The users that I asked represented a wide pool, ranging from new members to the old and experienced. It seems that out of all this, only one member said that they posted entries often. A little more than half said they had either never posted, or had never even heard of blogs on YWS. The majority told me that they would read others' entries, but only sometimes, if something caught their eye.

@Empress told me her interesting reason for hardly ever posting on her YWS blog:






However, there were still a lot of people that said they did post once in a while, or at least that they used to post. There were also seven that said they browsed through blog entries quite often, in some cases every day, so the Blogs section is not exactly lacking in life, despite the many people that do not post on their blogs. After all, only five people said that they never read the posts of others.

I also talked with some members about what they used their blogs for. @567ajt , a very frequent blogger whose posts you are bound to find if you are poking around in Blogs, had this to say about his blogging habits:






@Crysi , another frequent poster, uses her blog a little bit differently:






@SparkOfDoubt told me how her blogging topics have changed since she first started her YWS blog. She doesn't post as regularly, but her posts are still visible to any member who visits the Blogs section regularly.






SparkOfDoubt also has an intriguing way of titling her blog posts. She told me she names her entries with song lyrics that fit the mood of the entry.

Everybody can use their blogs for whatever they want, really. As shown by these three bloggers, there are entries about all kinds of things out there. So if you want to share something, anything, go ahead and post on your blog! But remember, blog entries can be seen by anyone.

Crysi has some friendly advice:






And to conclude, SparkOfDoubt shares a note of encouragement:

FEATURED WORK: PSYCHOHOMICHLOPHOBIA

written by ArcticMonkey < PM: >

This week’s hand-picked featured work is Psychohomichlophobia written by @Seraph.

Now, you might be looking at that word thinking, what does that mean, and why should I read a poem if I can't even understand the title? I assure you, however, that this is a fantastic poem. Thirteen likes can't be wrong!

If you haven’t already, you should check out this poem, and maybe even leave your thoughts on it, because it’s a great read. Reviews already include mentions of ‘a spectacular vocabulary’, so why not check it for youself?

I caught up with Seraph and asked him a few questions about his featured work.



Seraph: I was inspired by myself, actually. After exploring through my own thoughts and wills, I discovered how much I truly treasure the human mind. Without such an organ, we would not function as we do. We could not be the cognizant, sentient gods of this universe (that's a hyperbole, but I digress;) that we are! xD I thought of how many people squander their time and their potential intellects, and how I was afraid of losing what I can currently call my own, in one way or another.



S: I thought I would make it rather obscure, as it veers on the notions of a fear of losing mental acuity in the first place. Nonetheless, it does issue omens, which I'm going to leave open to interpretation. ;D



S: I was ecstatic, to say the least. This is the first instance that any of my works has been featured.



S:"Psychohomichlophobia, aka "Psychonebulaphobia" is a term (two in actuality) that I've coined to describe my fear of mental fog. In fact, I've constructed it so it blatantly means just that. I treasure knowledge, and losing it, or the ability to structure and compute the data that it is comprised of, would utterly decimate who I am and who I wish to be.



S: As an infant, I immediately displayed a profound desire to learn and comprehend that which encompassed me. As soon as I learned about science, I was enthralled, to say the least. I collected books, children's encyclopedias, stories, et cetera. My parents would also read to me diurnally, resulting in the further expansion of my passion. I delved into a plethora of literature, media (educational television, documentaries, and the like,) and all that I could grasp in order to learn about all there is, was, and will be. Reading coveted my attention, and I ascertained that I would have to utilize a much larger lexicon in order to fully comprehend works of higher levels. In primary school, I exhibited a vernacular that averaged at a middle-high tier high school student. This placed my "Lexile" within the 99th percentile in comparison to other students in my grade. My seemingly extensive intellect derives itself from these roots as well as others.



S: Poetry is my scribal prerogative. It comes most naturally to me. I've also thought of some possible and quite plausible lectures pertaining to religion, quantum mechanics, various theories of the universe, psychoanalytics, philosophy, and other various topics, of which I've yet to write.



S: I intend to inscribe my thoughts regarding some of the aforementioned subjects.

That’s all for now, folks. Be sure to check out this poem when you can!

THE POETS OF YWS: AN INTERVIEW WITH THE FANTASTIC FORTISwritten by SparkOfDoubt < PM: >

In the steely surroundings of the YWS chatroom, I sit down with the fantastic @fortis to talk about poetry on YWS.



fortis: No problem.



f: As opposed to other sites, I feel like YWS is better than other sites in encouraging poetry, and reviewing it.



f: oh, I usually just pick and choose from the poetry section and the Green Room.



f: Hm..I feel like sometimes there are "poetry" people and "prose" people, and more people need to try poetry, even if they think they're not very good, and visa versa.



f: I do. I've only reviewed a couple prose pieces.



f: I've been meaning to, but I haven't yet.



f: Yes, alll the time.



f: Welcome!

Like fortis said, it's a great environment inside the poetry forums of YWS! So, what are you waiting for? Go check it out!

GREEN ROOM GALLERYwritten by HomeschooledTeen < PM: >

The Green Room. As a writer on YWS, I hate it, because it means that no one has taken the time to review my work yet. As a reviewer, I love it, because it means that no one else has touched it yet, and I'm the first.

Saying that kind of makes it sound like I'm taking away the work's virginity, which in a sense, I am. It's a good thing. We want your works to lose their review virginity as quickly as possible, both to get you the feedback you need, and to clear the room out.

Here's what @Aquestioning has to say about the Room:






The content of the Green Room is also a big deciding factor in how many points it costs to post new work. The more works in the Room, the more expensive posting is. It costs between 250-500, depending on the number of Green Room works. There are currently nearly fifty works in the Room, and posting a new work costs 300 points. Lower the number of works and you lower the price.

Win, win, right?

This weeks featured Green Room Work is The Charm Of Deception- Chapter Two, Part One, written by @ShadowVyper. ShadowVyper has been a proud member of YWS since March of last year and has done over 250+ reviews. And yet, she has not received any reviews back for this work, which was posted at the end of July. I think that that is really sad. Can you bring a little happiness into our lives?

Want to review The Charm of Deception-Chapter Two, Part one ?

Want to check out the Green Room ?

I like to believe in six impossible things before breakfast. But one thing that I don't believe is impossible is clearing out The Green Room. Let's do this!

FEATURED ARTICLE FROM THE WRITER'S CORNERwritten by SparkOfDoubt < PM: >

Often ignored, the Resources forum is a treasure trove of wonderful knowledge. Every week, @SparkOfDoubt ventures into the Writer's Corner to find articles to feature in Squills.

This week's featured Writer's Corner Article is The Plot Bunny Adoption!

Are you a writer whose block is just too heavy to bear, and you're trying to get out of your rut? Are you looking for a fresh new prompt that could spark an interest in your creative brain? Look no further! At Plot Bunny Adoption, people can pool their ideas together on topic, offering their unused plots for use by other writers.

This means that if you're the writer who has just too many plots to spare and your brain is getting crowded, this is the place to leave those extras for others who are not as gifted with over-plotting skills.

Whether you're looking to leave plots or pick up a couple, this topic is definitely something to keep your eye on!

Though Plot Bunny Adoption! was featured this week, there are still a few other topics worth a quick mention!

SOCIETY PAGESwritten by Stella Thomas < PM: >

As we move into August, people’s summers are going every direction. Some of us, such as @Blues are using this time to do productive things, such as throwing himself into the learning of Mandarin. Oo-er, rather you than me. I never got past “Szechuan chicken.”

But the rest of us are rather more, well, relaxed. @Snoink is living it up in beautiful Italy on her honeymoon, @Lauren2010 has gone on her holliers and everybody seems to be taking a well-earned break, especially those about to go back into full-time education at the end of this month. That number includes myself but for some it’s a pretty important year- @Elinor%20Brynn is only one of many people to start doing her college applications this summer. Gosh! Those were the days- but the colleges with the most scandal are always the trickiest to get into and naturally they’re the only ones Lady S was interested in…

This week saw a break in tradition site-side as we had not one, not two but three featured members. Wow! @SushiSashimi333, @thewritersdream, and @KittyCatMeow were chosen for forming the fabulous Welcoming Committee. I really can’t think of anybody who deserved it more. Congrats from all of us (namely, me) here at Society Pages.

Ramadan finally ended, much to the relief of many members on the site who are now allowed to eat during daylight hours again. Eid Mubarak everyone, I don’t know how you do it.

In the land of kilts, haggis and sheep, @beckiw and the famous Tom (who seems to spend his days either saving Becki from her own ineptitude or mocking her for it by her own account, although I’m sure nobody is that bad) have bought a flat together. That’s so exciting- and also pretty necessary, after the rebels blasted a hole in the bedroom ceiling of their last place…

And finally, @Nate, being the mischief-maker that he is, decided to introduce YWS to the ‘Marquee’ tag. Chaos ensued, and I really don’t know why.

I mean, really Nate, do you think we have nothing better to do than watch text move across our screens?

Remember if you have any gossip or any announcements you want to tell the world, I love a good tip-off!

Until next time, my lovelies,

THE UNSUNG GEMS OF THE POETRY FORUMSwritten by SparkOfDoubt < PM: >

Join us every week as @SparkOfDoubt goes in search of poetry gems that haven't gotten the spotlight they deserve.



Six Impossible Things
By: @HomeschooledTeen

One of our very own Squills writers puts a spin on the Alice In Wonderland quote that reads

"Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast."

Homeschooled discussed in a cheery, humorous way how a person might day dream about a better life. Not only does she imagine celebrities coming back to life, but she also spins us a tale where movies are made differently, or not made at all! You'll find yourself grinning at this delightful, light-hearted little piece.

Citations - Alice In Wonderland Quote


silhouette
By: @Persy

Having always been a fan of Persy's fantastic poetry, and having watched from the sidelines as she grew into the poet she is today, I was not disappointed by this poem. You instantly feel drawn in, whether it is because the poem is speaking directly to you or because it leaves so much to the imagination that you can weave the story for yourself. This is one of the things Persy is best at. You will not be able to stop reading this poem. Slightly accusatory, the poem immediately takes the defensive, but not in the way you would think it would. Instead of the narrator saying they're not sorry, as most norms would, the narrator is assuring the readers that they are indeed sorry, which is quite refreshing. While short, this poem is definitely worth a look.


On Relationships with Novels
By: @Laminated

We've all felt it. The sadness when a novel ends. The nostalgic feeling that automatically sets in, already imagining what could happen after it's over. Beautiful crafted, this poem puts our thoughts into words, describing the feeling of loss and fulfillment at the same time. As your reading it, you can't help but think of the piece of literature you just read, and you're filled with a craving to start a new novel and begin the process all over again. Gorgeous and worth every second spent reading it.

And that concludes another Unsung Poetry Gems! Join us again next week!
