Hi everyone! I've been lurking for the past 3 weeks and I've finally decided to sign up! I just got into writing and hope to one day publish a book when I get older, since I plan to become a developmental psychologist or elsein the Psychology field. Writing will not be my main job, more like a dedicated hobby. What makes things even better is today's my birthday. Go me! Turning 16 and loving it.
Hello Cheese and Grapes, Welcome to the Writing Forums, and Happy Birthday! For some reason, I'm suddenly and acutely aware that I haven't yet had breakfast. 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! 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!
Hello and happy birthday! I like your username. Tasty What do you like to write? Hope to see you around the forums.
No way! I want to get into Psych-Special Ed when I get into college! 0_o But anwyways, welcome! Interesting username by the way. Is that your favorite snack? XD
