Hello Laura! Welcome to YWS.

How this site works is you review other peoples' stories, poems, etc. to get points. You use points to post your own works. To write a review, go to the Green Room in the upper right hand corner of the page and choose a work. Read it and at the bottom will be a box in which you will write the review. A common reviewing format, the YWS Critique Sandwich, can be found here.

Now you have to press the button above the submit button so that it turns from 'No' to 'Yes'. Be sure that your review is over 250 characters otherwise it's a comment and you don't get points for it.

If you need help with something or have any questions, feel free to post a message on my wall.

Looking forward to meeting you on YWS! :D

Hey, Laura!

You can pick out the moderators by their light or dark green usernames. If you need help, like changing your username, retrieving deleted posts, just ask them. ^_^
