Hello. I am Z. Constantine.

I am here to meet other writers and receive advice to improve the body of work which I am developing at Operator-Speaking.com (which, admittedly, has not seen much in the way of new content for a while).

I have tried my hand at poetry, fiction, and even spoken word recordings. I welcome feedback on my work thus far.

For those interested, I am also a web designer/developer with plenty of extra hosting space.

If you have an extensive body of work and would like to establish a web presence, I would be happy to lend a hand (free of charge) - send me a PM and we can discuss.

Hi Z. Constantine, welcome to the forums :) If you have any questions give us a shout and I hope that you enjoy your stay.

Hello Z., Welcome to the Writing Forums.

If you haven't explored the site yet, you should probably do so soon. Newcomers often gravitate to the Lounge, the Word Games, or the Review Room, but there is much more to be discovered if you poke in the corners. Remember to check out our FAQ (http://www.writingforums.org/faq.php) as well!

As for the Review Room, new joiners often wonder why we do things a bit differently on this site than on other writing sites. We emphasize reviewing as a critical writing skill. Training your eye by reviewing other people's work helps you improve your own writing even before you present it for others to see. Therefore, we ask members to review other people's writing before posting work of their own. The Review Room forums on this site, therefore, are true workshops, not just a bulletin board for displaying your work (and on that note, please only post each item for review in one Review Room forum). See this post, Why Write Reviews Before Posting My Work? (http://www.writingforums.org/showpost.php?p=65432&postcount=1) for more information.

Enjoy your stay here, and have fun!

Hi there Z and welcome :)
