Welcome welcome welcome to YWS! All of us here are like one big dysfuntional family: we may live all over the world but we are connected by our mutual love of writing (and reviewing.)
Like any organized community, we've got some rules here at YWS. You won't be put in prison if you don't follow them, BUT it is frowned upon. And frowns are pretty bad.
Rule Number 1: For every story/poem/etc you post, please review two other works posted by your fellow users. This makes a 2:1 policy. Doing this ensures that everyone gets a review on their work. Horay! If you follow this rule, not only will you be fair, but also, people really appreciate reviews on their work.
I'm sure that a lot of people will fill you in on the rest, so I'll leave that to them :]
Again, welcome to YWS.
PM (private message) me anytime! I'm always willing to chat with a fellow writer in need.

It's a lot of fun to read and review other peoples work as well as posting some of your own and seeing what people think. I've learned that reviewing others work makes it more likely for them to review yours so remember the 2:1 ratio. If you have questions feel free to PM me.

So, the other two rules here on YWS are as follows:
2- No chat-speak. That means proper grammar, spelling and caps. lol, brb and other such abbreviations, but please take the time to turn 'u' into 'you', 'gr8' into 'great', ect.
3- Please keep swearing to literature only. If you use the f-word then you must rate it R (rated R works can also have graphic scenes). Any other rating, however, will make your story show up on the front page of YWS for all to see. And you just might get more comments out of it.
So, those are the main rules here, along with the 2:1 one.
Now, tell us a bit more about yourself! Who are your favourite authors? What are your favourite books?
If you have any questions, PM me.
