Hey everyone! I'm Ruby, I'm 15, and I use she/her pronouns. For now. (I'm in the midst of a crisis). I'm new to this website and it seems like a really cool community. I mostly write poetry and short stories because I cannot commit to anything long form -_- but I'm trying (and low key failing) to hit 15000 words on one of my projects. I also write for my school newspaper and plan on going to journalism school, though that is subject to change. My interests/hobbies include reading, drawing, cosplay, internet horror/unfiction, typology, secondhand fashion, and having weird philosophical conversations at 3am. Some of my favorite novels are Paradise Rot, No Longer Human, The Setting Sun, House of Leaves, and Crying in H Mart. My favorite poetry collection is Night Sky With Exit Wounds. It's kind of all over the place, but I LOVE discussing books so let me know if you've read any of them.. anyways that was really long winded. Also I feel like I need to mention that I'm a Garfield fanatic. Okay that's all.

Welcome to the site! Super glad to have you here! I always like someone who likes to have random philosophical conversations at 3 am because me too.
If you have any questions feel free to ask me! Or if you just want to come and talk/rant I am always here!
What's your favorite type of writing?
Personally I am more of a poetry kind of person but sometimes I'll write a little prose.
Glad to meet you!

Glad to meet you too!

Ooh.. that's a hard question for me to answer. I think I'd say poetry is my favorite thing to write. I like being able to concentrate all of my efforts into a small number of words and make them as good as possible. In other forms of writing, I can get overwhelmed and feel that I am being "stretched too thin" if that makes sense. I also especially enjoy it because my brain has a tendency to generate visuals when I think of emotions, concepts, people, etc. so it is fun to transform those into writing.

Welcome to YWS! It's great to have you here!

I'm super intrigued about your 15000 word project - is it more of a short novel?

Thanks for the welcome!

I don't know what I would categorize my project as yet. I've decided on a very loose plotline, but for the most part, I'm just writing and seeing where it goes. It may exceed 15,000 words. I only set that as my goal because it's longer than anything I've written thus far, so it's arbitrary.
If you're curious about the details, it's just a simple love story. I'm writing it to practice actually completing projects more than anything, so the plot is not ambitious.
