Hey guys. My name's Jonathan and I'm new here! I like to play the drums, read, and write. I've done all of these most of my life. My first story was called "Wy I Lik to Skatbord" (and it was spelled like that :roll:). My favorite authors are J.K. Rowling, Dan Brown, and Tom Clancy. I like everything they have ever done. They're amazing! I like to longboard, and I have the scars to prove it. In my free time (like I have any) I make videos with my friends. When I "grow up" I want to be either an author or a particle physicist.

I can't wait to meet you guys and start writing here :D .

Hey Jonathan! Welcome to YWS!!! I'm Zoe, but most people call me bludragon, or just plain Dragon.

You play the drums? I do too! Well, at least, I used to.....

Okay, so there are three basic rules. If you don't follow them, the mods will eat you!!! Just kidding. Most of them are really nice.

1) 2:1 ratio. That means, for every story / poem you write, you have to submit 2 reviews. Reviews are generally 3 lines long.
2) No chat speak or caps. Use proper grammar please!
3) Rate your work. (ex: R would be pieces that contain swearing, etc.)

Those are the basics. Have you noticed the colored names yet? Our little YWS rainbow includes:

Green : Mods
Blue : Greeters
Purple : Instructors (they're the ones you want to go to if you need something reviewed)
Red : Administrators

Now for the hard questions.....
Favorite authors? Favorite books? Flavor of ice cream? If you could be anything in the world, what would it be? Hobbies besides writing, reading, and the drums (and skateboarding :wink: )?

Feel free to PM me if you need anything! Or if you get lost. Believe me, it's easy enough.

See you around!

zOe :D
Help! I can't remember if I'm the evil twin or the good one!

Hey Jonathan, welcome to YWS! :D

I always wanted to play the drums. It always looked fun to me, but I didn't have the patience to get good at it... Percussion is boring :)
*gasp. dies* JK Rowling! I love her. I think she's one of my most favorite people in the universe. If you haven't already, check out the groups. There are about a million, (including a Harry Potter one). I'd recommend joining at least one. They're a lot of fun because you're talking with people the have similar interests as you.
Man I wish I could surf or long board. They're kind of similar right? Or am I just making stuff up again? :)

So...Are you ready for some hard questions?
What's your favorite genre to read/write? What kind of music do you listen to? If could see any band/singer in concert and hang out with them for an hour afterwords, who would you see? What's your baked good of choice? If you were a marine biologist, what animal would you study and why?

I hope you have a great time here and if you have any questions or need anything, feel free to PM me! :D

Hey Jonathan! Welcome! I see that you've already been assaulted by a horde of members, so I'll join in the fray. :)

So, you like physics? I admit, I prefer biology to physics, but I find nuclear fission and fusion interesting. Biology is just that much more interesting, with genetics and the systems of the body, etcetera.

Well, moving on. What types of videos do you make with your friends? Funny ones, random ones, what type? My friends have started a group called Random Tendon (long story) and they make videos, and some of them are up on youtube. However, most of them they keep to themselves. A shame, since the ones that they keep to themselves are really funny.

Anyway, why don't you tell us more about yourself? What are your hobbies? What do you like to read and write? Is there anyone in particular who inspires you? Do you have anything else you want to share with anyone?

Well, I hope to see you around sometime, Jonathan. If there's anything you need, go ahead and PM me. See ya around sometime!
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.
