I think I've seen you on TYWC, hehe.

Well, first of all, this is a pretty small forum, so there's definitely a community aspect. It's really cool! We have blogs that we comment on, stories to critique, and then of course you can put up your own stories (as long as you don't clog the boards with every single piece you've ever done). Join up in the randomness forums, PM random people... it's fun. :)

It's a little tough getting in, but once you're are in, you'll be absolutely obsessed. ;)

Go with Snoink's advice, me thinks. If you have a favourite genre of writing, start poking around those forums. review, but I would advise more than a "good job!" something constructive is always appreciated.

Also, chat speak isn't encouraged, and it tends it irk a lot of members.

Ok. done sounding so darn formal. just have fun! hang out in the lounge, critique some, make friends, it works.

To get "in", people have to notice you. Posting here is a good start. So is posting in the Lounge and the Literary Forums.

And of course, here is your gift: :D :) :( :o :shock: :? 8) :lol: :x :P :oops: :cry: :evil: :twisted: :roll: :wink: :!: :?: :idea: :arrow: :| :mrgreen: :xmas_wink: :xmas_happy: :xmas_cool: :xmas_evil: :dreidel: :menorah: :frosty: :thumb: =D> #-o =P~ :^o [-X [-o< 8-[ [-( :-k ](*,) :whistle: O:) =; :sick: :-({|= :-$ :-s \:D/ :-# :hearts_eyes: :love: :lots_hearts: :elephant:

...I think I've seen you before.

Anyway, if I welcomed you before, I welcome you again!

Posting is always good. If you post on the debate forums, make sure you research thoroughly first and read through the whole debate.

Have fun!

hey, welcome! I'm Duskglimmer, but most people call me Dusk or Dusky.

A good way to get your name around is to post in some of the "member above you" type threads in the lounge and randomness boards (there's "rate the avatar about you" "rate the signature above you" "the member above you" "the member above you version II", etc. etc.). Other than that, I'd follow Snoink's advice. Just poke around. You're sure to find something that catches your eye.

My advice: just jump right in and start posting. We'll all get to know and love you.
