Hello everyone! Obviously, I am a new member of this forum and quite ecstatic to be so. First off, let me give you a little background about myself.

My nickname is Ng if you wish to call me so.
I am 16 years old currently, and about to be a junior.

Truthfully, I have a lot to learn about composing, editing, and critiquing fiction. My only past experiences are flabby fan-fictions and short, purposeless prose.

I know I'll learn a lot from the rest of you, reading all your wonderful fiction, and I hope I can come to be a reasonable author.

Thank you all for reading. I cannot contain my excitement at finding this forum!

-ng :D

I would hope you'd introduce yourself! Otherwise, how would be know who you are? :p

In any event! Welcome to YWS! If you have any questions about the site, feel free to PM me! I would offer words of wisdom, but I'm no good with fiction (well, not totally hopeless, but not as good as some!), I do poetry! Well, when I have time!

Any hobbies other than writing? Music, sports?

Hmm, make sure you read the rules (under "About" at the top of the page!) and all the juicy stuff in there before anything else! I think that's everything... oh yeah! Enjoy the site! See you around the board!

Thank you for introducing yourself, and offering help :) I appreciate it very much!

As far as other hobbies, I love music so I'm in our HS band, along with choir. I'm also an artist in both traditional and digital media. And well truthfully, I have many hobbies. Writing is my longest-living one though!

Alright, well thanks again, and I sure will be checking out those rules! Gosh, I have bad experiences from not. =D

Hi Naturesgirl, I'm Adam.

I welcome you happily to our little website. There's lots to read and do and look at so enjoy yourself and take all the time you want. (This place is oddly addicting.)

What instrument do you play in band? I'm a sax player myself. I can't wait to read your stuff and I hope you put up some artwork too. If you need any help I'm just a PM away.

Welcome NG! My name's Demeter.

Great to have you here! It's always fun to get new members to the site.

Rules, Guides and FAQ are really worth checking out. They give you the basic idea. Also, it's recommended to do two reviews toward one piece of your own work. The more you review, the more people will like you! :) I'm also willing to help if you ever have any concerns about anything.

So, I hope to see you around!!

All the best

ZOMG! I almost accidentally deleted this thread! Isn't that sad? I think it would be sad.

But anyway, the reason why I almost deleted this thread is because I am a moderator. This means that if you have any questions whatsoever, you can bug me about it and I have to answer you, whether I like it or not. ;)

Also, if you have any questions on critiquing, you can ask me. I am a leader of one of the elite critiquing usergroups on the site, and I would love to help you out in that area.

With that said, what stories are popping out of your head right now? Past adventures you've had? Rolling fantasies? Science fiction? And! And! What instrument do you play? I play bass clarinet and clarinet, though I'm no good at it. :P
