Hey there! I'm pretty much always feeling friendly =) My name's Heather and if you need a hand with anything while you're at YWS, don't hesitate to ask. You can pm me for reviews, with questions or just to chat ^^

If you like meeting new people/ have some time on your hands, you can start your own individual welcome thread and tell us about yourself or even just post it here. It's always good to get to know new people...

Also, there's a couple of rules around the site that you should check out but I'll just briefly tell you a few important ones: Don't write in full caps/ use chat-speak; Do respect the 2:1 review policy and review two pieces of writing for every piece you post.

See you around!

Heather xx

Hi there!

I'm Zal, I like long walks on the beaches, romantic evenings with my special lady, and girls... Ahh, girls. (Sorry ladies, I'm taken. *Wink*)

Now back to a more, yet still not very serious matters. I'm Zal, and I'm (Obvioulsy) goofy and random. I have more hobbies than should be humanly possible. Tennis, singing, drawing (More like doodling.), acting, my awsome girlfriend, AyumiGosu17, and of course writing. I have experience in writing writing my own crazy stories, that I will eventually post here, and i have experience in role playing from Gaia online. (It's not immature, we just pretend to be people from TV shows and fight eacthoth... nevermind.) And, i'm open to friend requests from anyone. Nice to meet you all!

Signed:
Zal Deathomen

Hi Zal! Great to meet you and welcome to YWS! Before you start posting your stuff, I better lay down the rules. Well, two of them at least.

1. Keep the 2:1 review ratio. That means that for every work you post, you must review two or more works before.

2. Use proper grammar, spelling, and capitalization. dont tak lk dis. It is painful.

Well, that's it. A tip if you want to post your works: Don't flood the forums with them. Try limiting yourself to one per day. It doesn't look good if someone just puts up eight works in one day, even if you critique, critique, critique.

Well, tell us more about yourself. What do you like to write? What about read? Who are your favorite authors? What type of music do you like? Any favorite movies? Other stuff like that.

If you enjoy Roleplay, there's a forum here called the Storybooks which is pretty much roleplaying.

And yeah, if you have any questions, feel free to PM me. Welcome to YWS and hope to see you around sometime!

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 all! So glad I found this site xDD

My name's Kiki, I go to the Art Institute of Pittsburgh for Game Art and Design. I love to write fantasy and draw up characters and I hope to get into the industry for Character concept.

I hope to make friends <3 feel free to message me =^-^=

Hiya and welcome!

Be sure to scroll up and read the rules in the posts above yours. ;)

You'll learn grammar soon enough. ^_^ Something about this place helps you with such matters. If you really want tips, check out the Grammar Section of the Knowledge Base. It's full of articles to help you out.

Ohh, a game designer! I wanted to do that for awhile. ^_^ What made you pick that major?

If you have any questions/want to talk, PM me.

Hi

I'm thirst_23. I'm really into good-guy vampire stories. I'm writting a book right now, and I stumbled on this site. Seems cool.

See you around,

Hiya and welcome!

So, three main rules on YWS are:

1- Review two works before posting any of your own. This helps spread the reviews around and people are very willing to return the favour. ^_^ It's asked you always keep that 2:1 ratio.

2- No chat-speak. Some abbreviations like lol, brb, POV, MC and other term abbreviations are okay, just don't overdo it.

3- Rated works are what we like to see! If you rate your work (and it's not rated R), it'll show up on the YWS front page. Rated R works have the f-word or graphic scenes.

Would your book happen to be about a good-guy vampire?

If you have any questions, PM me.
