Before I know about YWS, I used to go to many websites to write my stories. I went to Wattpad, Figment, Writerscafe, and etc. for my love of writing. I enjoyed reading people's stories on there and writing things for fun. People loved my stories and always told me that I am a great writer. Also, my friends have accounts on those sites too. They always enjoyed my stories that I wrote for them online. They sometimes wrote stories on there which they were very good as mines. I really loved those sites very much, but I wanted to go somewhere else to write my stories.
While searching for another writing site in Google, I saw a site called Young Writers Society(aka YWS). I went into the site and signed up without a second thought. I had three hundred and fifty points and saw some another users greeted me. I politely told them thank you and all that until they all stopped saying,"Welcome to YWS!" . Now I was ready to write with a thought saying, "Now to show them my love of writing."
While being here after my first day in YWS, I didn't know that this site will be too much. You have to review to get more points and people reviewed your stories or poems like you are some famous writer. I thought this site is just to write stories for fun, not to treat people like they are in school. I can improve in school with a teacher, not with a random stranger. Also, I can be mistreated by experienced writers. I was like, "Dude, I know I need help with fixing my sentences and stuff, but you don't have to be mean to me."
However, I enjoyed getting along with people. Some of them can be rude, but most of them are nice. Even though I don't have to continue conversations, I can think of something to talk about. Also, one important about me liking it is SB(aka storybooks). I always wanted to act like my characters and become an actress. However, I have a shy moment and sometimes 'don't-know-what-to-say-for-my-character' moment in SB. I always wrote one thing for my character and then never write it again. I know that I am shy little butterfly who will get out of its shell.
Overall, I kind of like YWS. It can be too much for me, but it can be fun. I will give this site a 'B' because it seems like a great site. Anyway, have a nice day!
