I haven't posted anything yet, but I'm sure I'll get around to it eventually. This site seems pretty fun, and there's lots of nice people here! :D I should've introduced myself earlier, but I was feeling a little shy. I'm also kind of new at writing, so hopefully I'll be able to improve it by getting feedback. By the way, my real name's Amy.
Goodbye for now!

Hi InkAndPaper, welcome to the family! I know Clarity already offered her help, but keep in mind I'm open as well! What genre do you most like to write?

A good place to check out when you're new here is The Buddy System. If you choose to join, you will be paired up with a mentor who will help you find your way around the site.

Another awesome place is The Big Book of YWS Codes. Check it out to learn how to do this, this, this, and (my favorite) THIS!!!

If you ever want to summon me, just put a @ in front of my name. Ex: @InkAndPaper! I'll summon up someone especially welcoming for you, @Iggy.

Hope to see you around!

Cheetah, I'll be sure to keep your offer in mind. :D

Me? I like to write friendship (is that even a genre?), fantasy, and romance. Mostly light-hearted stuff. How about you?

I've checked out The Buddy System, and it seems really cool! I'm probably going to try it out, what's the harm? I'm not sure how many writing-oriented clubs there are, but I've certainly seen a lot of clubs for interests!

I'm really excited about learning how to make my text look colourful and fun (probably more than I should be)! I wonder if there's a rainbow option...

Thanks for all of the help!

From InkAndPaper (Amy)

You're welcome! I enjoy writing fantasy and just fiction in general.

As for the text, I wish there were a rainbow option! What you can do is color every letter individually like this!! I'm totally not showing off my knowledge/skills.
