Hey ya'll I'm new here thought I'd drop in and say hey. I reckon I'll see how this goes as I'm a little leery of putting my writing up for everyone to see.
^_^ Welcome to YWS! I'm a newbie here as well, but I just wanted to pop in and give a quick welcome since I appreciated the welcomes I received earlier today.
Anyways, from several introductory posts by others of higher authority, there seems to be a wish to cut down on chat speak and also a commonly followed rule that you review at least two other works before posting one of your own and keeping the ratio about 2;1. Hope that's correct. -shifty eyes-
Anyways, I would also like to encourage you to definitely share your writing. I am still rather self-conscious about letting other people look at my works, but I'm finding more and more that being able to discuss an outsider's viewpoint with someone who reads your work and critiques it honestly helps a lot more than just frantically trying to perfect it on your own. ^_^ In short, welcome, and I hope you'll find the confidence to post some works soon! ^_^
Hi,
You can look at Genrou Fantasia Novels on the lightnovels.org. There they are looking for
such young writers as you. If you want to be a real writer there is your place. I checked this
site but it is not just what I’m looking for. I wish you all the best.

Hey, hunter! I'm Lily. Welcome to the wacky world of YWS!
It's okay. Initially, I was kind of wary about putting up my work too. But after I made sure nobody knew me in real life.. Well..
I've also heard that some boy writers don't like the idea of having their friends find out that they write o_O Of course, this might just be stereotyping, I don't know.
One more important rule Hannah omitted to elaborate on is the chatspeak rule. (Darn, I missed the 2:1 one!) No chatspeak is allowed, not even in the chatroom! This means no capslock as well. Abbreviations like POV and MC are okay, and lol is acceptable. If you're a spelling buff, this site is your cup of tea.
Soo.. tell us about yourself! Your hobbies, your favourites, what you read, and most importantly, what you write! Hopefully, it's prose. If you do any, call on me for a critique, kay?

No need to worry about posting your work on here mate. There are some competent people on here.
Have a good one.

Hello longhunter and welcome to our big, dysfunctional family! It's great to meet you. *sigh* Everyone has covered everything I wanted to ask, so that's out. All I can say is that any time you need a review, have a question, or just want to talk, I'll be available. Go ahead and PM me if you wish. So, see ya around!
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.
