The name's Bruce. *Waves* Writing and I fell for one another MANY years ago. In all honesty, she was my first true love. I met her in elementary school, oh how beautiful she was and we were an instant attraction! She captured my heart and I spent much of my free time in her loving arms. As time passed, we slowly grew apart and spent less time together. Years later, a day came when I realized just how long it had been since we had seen one another. I began to ponder on the memory of her. The many nights we spent snuggled together. I longed to reconnect with my love but there was always a road block. Excuses which only recently I came to realize them as such! The other day, I took off running. I ran for my first true love, back where I knew I could find her tucked away between the two blue lines on the sheets and revealed in ink. I grasped a hold of her and and we made love! It was AMAZING! I was ecstatic to lovingly caress her again. Writing, I promise to never let you go again! I love you and I promise to show you each and every single day, even if but for only a few moments! I look forward to sharing my love with all of you. I long to connect to others with my passion and maybe even engage in a group with writers of whom we can all critique each others work in privacy. As well as the posters sharing amongst the public pages. I'm happy and privileged to be amongst you all! I am sure good times are in store for the future and I eagerly await them! Now also, I will admit that I am rusty! It has been a LONG time and I look forward to growing with all of you!
Welcome to Writing Forums, Bruce! I hope you find what you're looking for here, whatever your interests in writing. This forum aims to provide the best workshopping resources on the internet, and to that end we have a few rules which you should familiarise yourself with before you get stuck in. The main section of the site is the Writing Workshop, where members can post their writing in order to receive critique of their work. However, before we allow members to post their work, they must have met some basic requirments. Firstly, you must have been a member for fourteen days, and have made twenty posts on the forum overall (please note, posts in Word Games do not count towards this). This is so that members, when they post their work, have familiarised themselves with the forums and contributed to them (as well as hopefully learned something for themselves). Secondly, members must provide two constructive reviews of other people's work for each piece of their own that they wish to post. This is because we believe that the focus of workshopping should be equally upon giving reviews as receiving them, as they allow a writer to practice and improve their editing skills, which they can then apply to their own writing. Beyond the Writing Workshop, you will find that we have extensive forums for discussion of aspects of writing, as well as a community area for general discussion. We also run periodic short story and poetry contests, which are good for challenging yourself and expanding your skills. If you have any questions or problems, then the moderators (myself, Cogito, Lemex and Dante Dases) should be your first port of call. Any technical problems with the site itself should be directed to Daniel, the site administrator and owner. I would recommend you have a look over the rules so that you know what to expect, and what is expected. But aside from that, I hope you enjoy your time here. Banzai
