So, just rocked up here looking for a place to post stories? Alot of forums and websites do it, but theres thousand's of people, and you post a story and no one reads it cause' it floats into the background. Not a pro author, trying to be just an amueter that can't spell. Love to have a good ol' war about something to do with a book/writing/ {Previously over the forbiden topic of 'cliche's'. Death to an author as i see them} But yeah, small time story writer just looking for a place to give and receive some reviews.
Hello Rambling, Welcome to the Writing Forums. This is a war-free zone, so I hope that's not a disappointment. 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 as well, and be sure to read through the forum rules, too, to avoid any misunderstandings or hurt feelings. Respect for one another is our principal mandate. 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? for more information. Enjoy your stay here, and have fun!
Ah yes, yes. I understand. Type of critisisms {Told you I can't spell} I need, my writing lacks alot...of everything. Quick to reply here too, post places take up to an hour to get one post back.
