Well... lemme see. First impressions? You need to work on capitalizing more. ;) We're kind of grammar freaks here. But that's okay! You'll become a grammar freak in no time. And then you'll have a nervous breakdown when you see someone write "your" instead of "you're." It'll be awesome! In a completely geeky way, yes, but awesome! :D

Anyway, I'm Snoink, which means that I have a weird obsession with pigs. No, really. If you check out my video critiques (yes! I do video critiques!) you will find the backgrounds usually have pigs EVERYWHERE. It's pathetic. xD Also! I am a moderator of YWS, which basically means that I make sure that everybody is happy. Not happy? Come to me! :D And it doesn't necessarily have to be YWS-related either. I've had people ask me random questions on stuff from math problems (I'm a math tutor!) to boy troubles. And some other, more serious stuff which usually involves me donning on my black leather boots and doing whoop-ass maneuvers. :)

Anyway! I am guessing you came here to show off your writing. Therefore, what do you write? :)

Hiya and welcome to YWS! You are right about it being fantastic!

Two rules you should always keep in mind:

1- Review two works before posting any of your own. It helps make sure everybody gets a review. It's asked you always keep that 2:1 ratio.
2- Minimize chat-speak. That means proper grammar, spelling and caps. Some abbreviations and all alliterations are okay, just don't overdo it.

Wow. Your username... It's really close to the name of a jr. mod (Teague)

Tell us more about yourself! What are your favourite books? Authors? Genres?

If you need anything, feel free to PM me.

Greetings and salutations, Teigue! Meh, been reading too much Charlotte's Web. Anyway, great to have you around on YWS. This is an amazing site, and I'm absolutely sure you'll enjoy your stay here. And like Snoink said, we're pretty much Grammar Freaks. Don't worry about it; you'll get used to it eventually. Just don't freak out when somebody rips your work to pieces here.

Anyways, everyone already asked all the questions I want to ask. *sticks tongue out at Rosey and Night Mistress* Well, I think I should explain the colors of the names. But this might be completely unnecessary, but I found it really helpful.

Blue: They're Greeters. Basically, they're job is to make new members like you feel welcome, and to answer any questions that you have.

Purple: Instructors' names are in purple. Whenever you want an in-depth critique, just go and ask them. They know what they're talking (typing) about. On the subject of reviews, there's a forum called 'Will Review for Food'. It's found under 'The Lounge' and everyone there will generally review almost anything.

Light Green: These are the Junior Moderators. They're the ones you go to whenever you have some more technical questions.

Dark Green: These people are the Moderators. Any other, even more, technical issues go to them.

Orange: They're the distinguished members of the site.

Red: Administrators, like Nate (Lee). They keep the site healthy and running.

Methinks that's it. If you have any questions, need a review, or just want to talk, feel free to PM me. Bye!
There once was a cat.
He wasn’t particularly fat.
Fuzzy was his favorite mat.
And really, that was that.

Oh, but did you really think so?
Keep reading, it’s just the start of the show!
And as for how far this tale will go…
Well, even the cat doesn’t know.

Hi there! *waves overenthusiastically*

If you need any help with anything let me know, I'll be happy to help. Anyways, you have made a good first impression by posting here. :)
WARNING: Follow the rules, or the crazies will hound you.
Oh and yes, when you post your stories here, you will get honest and great critiques, so don't be offended when your works get ripped apart. It happens to everyone (including me.) By the same token feel free to give others honest critique.
Well see around, best of luck,
~Alyss
