Hey YWSers (or as I remember),
As you can see my username is Warnah, but feel free to call me War or Ben if you're looking for something shorter
Starting with a bit about me, Warnah is just how New Englanders (spent my entire childhood up there, now a proud Texan ) generally pronounce my last name "Warner." This has been my screen name on mostly everything for years now.
I'm a senior in high school looking to pursue a business degree in college. That being said, I actually had (I believe it's still around) an account by the username "Pilot," based on my love for planes, which is still very much alive. I hope to get a private pilot's license by the age of 25, despite zero flying experience. Just a goal of mine I've set . Anyways. I slowly stopped posting on here, and this is my first time visiting in over four years I believe. I was active on YWS when I was in 8th grade, so I've grown quite a bit since then.
To be honest, I haven't sat down and read a book in a long time, and I'm not too happy with myself about it. My reading and writing skills are still ahead of where I am education wise but I want to get back into that groove. It'll benefit me in the long run with business and communications, and won't hurt in finishing up high school and wherever I go to college
So that's why I came back here. This is the only writing forum I ever got into, and it helped push my love for reading and writing, even with how little quality work I pushed out. If it's frowned upon forgive me, but I plan on sticking to this account because I wish to separate myself from my noticeably shaky 8th grade writing back on my original account. I've grown a lot as a writer since then, so I wish to just move on and leave it in memory. But it'll forever be my true YWS origins, I suppose
So in sum, I've returned to reignite my love for reading and writing. It's not burning at the moment, but I know this site and community can give me the spark I'm looking for, assuming it's the friendly place I left a while back
A lot of my writing will be essays and reports, just for revision and critique. I remember being told years back not to be afraid to do so, and I hope a few of y'all are enthusiastic about picking apart persuasive and research writing! I'll do a lot of poking around, and review here and there. I'm by no means an expert, but I'm more than happy to comment on plot or point out anything grammar wise I can catch!
And I'll definitely be posting writing besides reports! I love to write shot stories (which I regrettably haven't done in FOREVER), so I plan on uploading drafts after draft until a majority can agree it's a "finished" piece . I plan to post as much as I can, but I don't like to force my writing. It's not pretty
I know that intro was lengthy, so thanks if you managed to get through all that! Hopefully it helps y'all get a good first impression of me I plan to stay active and grow as a writer, contributing where I can!
Good to be back and I look forward to getting to know some of you better!
