Watch the caps lock, deary. XD

Yay! The Midwest is fantastic! Corn, beef, and yard sales...it's just that good. To start off with, make sure you read the rules and critique a few things--and then you can get down to the fun part, which is posting your work. I can't wait to read something of yours! Feel free to PM me if you have any questions.

Hello and welcome!

Nice to meet you :D YWS is an awesome place, I'm sure you'll come to notice it, too.

Yep yep, I highly recommend you read the rules :D They're not surprising or difficult to follow, but still important for they keep this site on place.

Well, what is your favourite genre to write or read? Are you a poet or maybe a romance writer? Or are you open for anything?

Have a great time and don't hesitate to PM me if you have any questions or need a review some time!

Welcome, good friend! There's lots of things to do here, which I know doesn't answer your question. :wink: Reveiw others, post your work, chill out, and much more! There's a rule for posting your work, but I'll get to that later. Got to be specific for that question. :)

There's a bunch of rules which keep us "civilized." Hope I don't scare you off. :D One rule is about chat-speaking (you know, the good old btw lol brb omg and all). Since we're a writing site, that isn't allowed. Those perfessional writers (I thought we're "young"? Oh well.) would complain and all, and we're a writing site (did I mention that?). Btw and lol is allowed, but try not to overdo it.

Also, the "review two times before posting your own work" I'm not so good at explaining. Check out the official area for the complete info. I may even have messed up for chat-speak, so sorry everybody. Just remember this, before posting your first work, review two other works first. The 2:1 ratio works.
Ello everybody!
Wazzup! Immortatily is something I shall soon achieve!

lilstrymkr13-
Hi. Welcome to the family. I hope you have a fantastic time here. :D

What direction would you like to go to? The fiction forums, poetry forums, art & photography, etc...We have all sorts of things that you can check out. We even have groups that you can join.

So what do you like to write? Poetic words here? Or a little fiction there? Or maybe even both. Any genres that you absolutely have to write about? Or are you a fan of them all?

For me, it all depends on the mood I'm in. But I mostly like to write anything to do with the 19th century. I'm a huge historical fiction fan. But. I love that romance genre. -- I'm a hopeless romantic.

Any favorite music genres? Movies? Food? Novels? Favorite places with inspiration? Etc...

Well, if you ever wanna chat, you can always pm me. See you around...

Dude, obviously I'm the best writer of YWS...

XD

No! I am kidding! I'm just a lowly young writer like yourself, but I do have a bunch of favorites! Most of them are obscenely old works that nobody cares for anymore and probably shouldn't be revived, but there you go.

Some of my favorite poems:

Turn Out the Lights

Centering Gravity

Endings

Some of my favorite stories:

The Chair of Wind and Darkness <-- this is locked but still worth a read.

ARK

Keeping the Green

Hail Mary

Your Coat of Arms is the Lion

So those are a couple of stories that I like, but browse through the forums! You'll probably find something you like very much too. :)

Also, I am a moderator, so if you need any help whatsoever, bug me! My job is to help you out. :)

Hey,

Welcome to the family.

First of all the main rule here is to post 2 reviews before you post 1 of your work and to maintain that ration.

and for the other rules, you can look them up under the Help and Suppot Wiki at the Top on the right corner.

so, tell us about yourself. what type of book do you like? What genre do you like? etc.

Me, I like Romance and I write romance fiction.

well, see ya around. if you need something, give me a holla
