Hiya and welcome!

Just a couple o' quick tips here:

Rated works show up on the front page of YWS unless they are rated R. Rated R works have the f-word and/or graphic scenes.

When you're replying to more then one person, just list the names in your post. Like so:

Character A- Your response
Character B- your response

Ect.

If you have any questions, PM me.

Rosey Unicorn: Thanks for the tips. ^-^ I'm not much of a R-rated type of girl, so I'll make sure not to go for them. Does them not showing up on the front page mean they are at the back... or are they just everywhere? :) Thanks again.

Vivacious: Hi, Vivi! I guess that's a lot then. :) I've been really, really free today, so a lot of my time has been spent on the site. I'm really enjoying it and having fun reading the different types of stories everywhere. ^-^

The front page of YWS is the Index where you'll find the Featured Member, Top Five User Points list, ect. And no, rated R works will still show up on the lit. boards. They don't get bumped to the back.

Oh, that makes sense. ^-^ Thanks so much for clearing that up. I was a bit confused, but I get it now. :) (That was a little repetitive, I think. Sorry 'bout that.)

Oh don't worry about getting confused Saph! I've been on here for a few months now and I still get confused ^_^ Just click buttons and read things. Have you posted any of your work? I think I might have to go check.

Oh, thanks, Meadow! ^-^ I won't get too worried, but I want to get the hang of the site. Haha. :)
I've posted one story so far. I was trying something new - present tense and not fantasy-genre - just for my first post. I thought I'd do something original to start it off.

I didn't say much but you're welcome Saph! Well, you're smarter than I. I never came into the Welcome forum. Hehe. I just went a toured around (and got into trouble for not reviewing twice). Oh well. Present tense...*shrugs* I can still take a look at it. Although I usually haunt the fantasy fiction for a good read. ^_^

Sometimes exploring is a little more fun. ^-^ You got into trouble? *gasps* *smiles* I guess you learned after that.
I totally agree. I'm more into the fantasy genre, so I'm not sure exactly what I was doing. I think it still came out pretty well. ^-^ The next time I post, it'll definitely be fantasy though. That way everybody will get a chance to see what my real writing is like. Not like it'll change but you know what I mean. :)

Heh, it took me awhile to learn my way around this place too. Just ask a bunch of questions, click a bunch of buttons, and talk to people who know what they're doing! :P

If your work doesn't have vampires, werewolves or ghosts I'll check it out. Fantasy is where I haunt too. ^_^

Then I'll make sure to press as many buttons as I can! :)

My work doesn't usually hold any of those, but it'll usually have all sorts of little creatures. And if I have ghosts, they're not scary or anything... Mostly because I'm terrified of so many things! Haha. I only have one thing posted right now, but I might try and write something tonight so I can add it tomorrow. ^-^

Hey Saph, I have a feeling you're fitting in very well! :)

Welcome! I'm Demeter, it's nice to meet you. How are you?

Wow, about two days of membership and already 6 reviews! That's great, you clearly have the YWS spirit. How did you find your way here? Google or friends, or something else? :) I find it always interesting to find out that kind of things. And other things, too, because I'm really curious, haha!

Aw, that 'all sorts of little creatures' thing sounds so cute! :) I get easily frightened, but one thing I'm very scared of is heights. Well, nowadays it's not so bad anymore, I think, but I still want to avoid going too high.

Well, I'm very glad you're enjoying this place, and I hope you'll PM me if you have something to ask, or anything.

See you around!

Demeter: Thanks for the welcome! ^-^ I'm totally loving it here and I'm already addicted.

Well, I found my way here through google. I love to write and eventually want to get published, so I started searching for sites for young writers. :) I saw this one and thought it would be awesome to try and I'm so glad I did!

As for being scared of heights, that has to be my worst fear. I can't even make my way up to the top of a ladder most of the time... Hopefully I'll get over it one day. :)

Heya Saph!

This site is addicting isn't it?

I'm scared of heights too, but I love to climb trees and sit on the roof's of buildings. The climbing down part is the hardest but it's always worth it ^_^ I'm scared of bears hehe.
