Hey everyone! I just signed up here and I'm loooooving it! :D I want to become an author someday, but I haven't actually written much. Practice makes one perfect. So, I'm here to do just that! Hope to read some cool stuff here and meet young writers too. :)


P.S. This is all I can think of to post in an introductory message!
I am what I am and that's something you can't be :)

Hey Damsel! I'm Vyper, or whatever you want to call me. So, great to meet you. Here on YWS, we have The Rules (found here: http://www.youngwriterssociety.com/rules.php), so if you could check them out, you'll be fine. However, if you're feeling a bit lazy, I got two of the most important ones here.

1. Keep the 2:1 review rule. That means that for every piece of work you intend to post, we ask that you review two other works first. That makes people more inclined to review your own, and it also makes sure everyone gets a review.

2. No chatspeak. That means to please use proper grammar, spelling, and capitalization at all times. Yes, even in the chat. We're all sort of grammar freaks here.

So, great to meet you and welcome to YWS! Time for the questions that everyone'll ask sooner or later.

Who are your favorite authors?
What are your favorite books?
What do you like to write?
What are your other hobbies?
How about interests in movies or music?
What goals do you have for the future?

Well, that's it from me. Feel free to PM me for anything that you need. I'll probably respond real quick. So, see ya around sometime, Damsel!
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.

Errrg Water Vyper asked all the questions AND the rules.

Soo...I guess all I have to do is introduce myself.

I'm JC. Well, of course my full username is thefireinmeisJC and the JC stands for Jesus Christ. But, that's what people call me nontheless. Speaking of which, can I call you Damsel? ^^

For now that is what I shall say. So..Wassup Damsel?

haha Welcome to the wonderful world of [s]Disney[/s] YWS! Home to [s]Mickey Mouse[/s] wacky writers!

Don't be afraid when you become addicted!

Ahh, I'll give some answers to WaterVyper's questions so you can learn a little bit about me too!

Authors: Caroline B Cooney, Marcus Zusak, Ellen Hopkins
Books: See authors...and Bible
Writing: I'm everywhere....lyrics (I stink lol) short stories, hopeless attempts to write a novel...pretty much all genres! though I love suspense, thriller, and mystery.
Hobbies: Reading, writing (NO WAY!!!), listening to music, [s]studying[/s], trying to play the guitar, trying to write songs, trying to survive calculus.
Goals: Get a full tuition scholarship to Bard College at Simon's Rock (though I learn about that in April! So its in the not-so-far future)
Movies and Music: I'm a Contemporary Christian Music fan. Some of my fav bands are Switchfoot, Superchick and Casting Crowns. Secular ones include 3 Doors Down and Daughtry. As for movies go I love Narnia!

Well that's all for me! See you around the forums!

Thanks so much for the welcome Vyper and JC! I'm Sad here. ( First three letters of my real name ) I am a grammar freak too! JC.. You have calculus too!! Tell me all about it !! I knwo how much it sucks! >_<

My favourite authors are J.K.R, Lord Jeffrey Archer, John Grisham, P.G. Wodehouse and Ruskin Bond.

There are no favourite books for me as such, because.... I don't know it's just hard for me to decide on one.

I like poetry and romantic and other fiction.

My other hobbies are sitting in front of the big blue light in the living room (Televison), Surfing the net and talking on the phone :D

I am crazy about music! I listen to anything from Hip-Hop to Rock to Pop to Heavy Metal. My favourite is rock though! And my favourite artists include Linkin Park, Pink FLoyd, Limp Bizkit, Green Day, Slipknot and of-late Taylor Swift.

I like watching foreign movies ( Yes, even the ones with the sub-titles in them) Movies which would be classified under Drama? I guess.



I want to become an author, but I have been compelled to take some other subjects, so after I finish my graduation and everything then I'll probably write part-time or as a hoobby.
I am what I am and that's something you can't be :)

Hiya and welcome!

Just a little something more about posting your work: When you do post it, please rate it. Rated works (unless rated R) show up on the front page. Who knows, you might get more comments. :wink: Rated R works have the f-word and/or graphic scenes.

Romance and poetry. I tend to put a little of both in my works, but deep down I'm a Fantasy writer through and through. Even a realistic fiction story of mine will end up having some magic in it. ^_^ Although I do write strait poetry sometimes. When prose just doesn't fit my mood.

Alrighty, that's my little bit of information. Hope to see you around the site! ^_^

If you have any questions, PM me.

Winter's Twelfth Night says...



Hello Damsel! Welcome to YWS! I am Winter.

I hope you don't mind, but here on YWS we tend to be a bit lazy with names. Don't be surprised if people automatically shorten your name. :D

So, the rules have been covered. The questions have been asked. What else?

Don't be afraid when you become addicted!

Ahahaha! JC is totally right; you will become addicted eventually. But that's not a bad thing!

I like watching foreign movies ( Yes, even the ones with the sub-titles in them)

Me too! I love foreign movies! That's probably because I love language, but foreign movies are awesome.

Anyway, if you need anything or want a review please PM me!

Heyy Damsel!
Welcome to YWS! I love poetry too. It tends to be romantic and somewhat depressing lately, but I do have a romance/comedy collaborating novel up...God, I love Taylor Swift!!!! What's your favorite song by her?? I can't pick, but Love Story and I'd Lie are at the top...Anyway, nice to know more about me. PM me if you ever want a review or want to talk about anything (especially music :D)
