of course, of course,
hey, Im God,
if the name offends you, feel free to make up one for your own use/amusment, I really dont mind what you call me,

Welcome to YWS,

a couple of things to warn you about,

1. general rules state, make sure you do at least two reviews before you post anything, and try to keep your review to post ratio at about a 2:1, at least.

2. no chatspeak, abbreviations are acceptable, so are such thins as MC for main character, thsoe are fine,

other than that, this is a site for expression, art, writing, that kinda thing, so I'll keep an eye out for you in the forums,
well, what about you? what do you write?
personally, I write alot of poetry and short stories.

do you like music? what kind, if yes?
I find music to be very inpirational.
feel free to PM me with questions, comments, or whatnot.

Peace,
God

Hiya and welcome to YWS!

God has covered the rules nicely, along with questions.

A quick run-down of the different buttons in the header:

Home- YWS's home page. Here you'll find a bunch of stuff, including Chat (when it's open) and the top five user points list.
My YWS- If you click on that you'll reach a screen that has what usergroups you're in (I'll get to usergroups in a minute), who your friends are, who's posted something new and what reviews you've gotten.
Comunity- Clicking that will get you back to this forum.
Writing- The Litrature board. It's where you review stuff, and where you post your work.
Groups- Where you find usergroups. There are a bunch here for just about everything, so brows through to see if any look interesting. Joining them is pretty easy.
Resourses- Has a bunch of articles that are helpful
Squills- YWS's e-zine (online magazine). You can find some great articles in them and general fun stuff.
Blogs- From there you can start a blog, read YWS's official blog or see who's posted stuff.
Messages- Your Private Message inbox
Help and support- Has all the rules and some navigating tips. It's a good idea to read through that if you're having trouble figuring stuff out.

Hope I helped!

If you need anything, feel free to PM me.

Thankyou! I've never done this before, so your info's great help! Trust me, if I have any questions, I'll tell you! I think I've got the basics figured out, I've already made two reviews and a post! Thanks so much! (Sorry for the exclamation points, sometimes I get over excited)

Nah, getting overexcited's normal. I was like that too when I first discoered how YWS works. Anyway, I'll go off and take a look at what you've posted. So, what do you like to read and write? Any other hobbies? Other miscellany? Tell us more about yourself.

Well, feel free to PM me for any of your needs.
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.

Oh no, I’m sorry, you’re under the impression that here on YWS we *help* writers instead of just feeding their gremlin tendencies.
