Hi. I'm new here, naturally. My name is Lynn. I have been making up stories since birth, basically and I've toyed around with some short stories and stuff for the past few years. I'm here because I recently started a story I'm really excited about. I wanted some feedback from other writers. I also wanted to be part of a writing community. i love to read others' stuff and tell them what I think, so this should be a good fit.
Yes it should be a good fit! Have a look around the site, there is loads more than just short stories and whatnot. Looking forward to reading this 'story that your excited about' Anywho.. welcome
Welcome to the site! I'm anticipating your work and appreciate that you enjoy critiquing others as well.
Welcome Hi, I'm new to this site myself, so we'll perhaps be bumbling along, side by side, trying to find our feet. I'm hoping for similar things myself, but am already a published writer, so maybe I need stretching an inch further. Anthony
Welcome to the site Lynn. No idea where you get the inspiration for your username, but anyhow, hopefully we'll see more of you everywhere now and then. Here's a basic welcome from all of us. It should be obvious, but in case it isn't, let me explain. The Writing Problems Area is exclusively where opinions on different ways to write, blockages in writing styles and similar problems can be discussed. In the Review Room, you can get critical appreciation and/or analysis of your written material. Behold, you must first review two pieces of writing before posting your own. This is ensure the pieces are evaluated to the most. Other than this, we have Writing Cotnests, weekly and monthly, where you can submit your writing. We also have Word games, Book Discussion and so on, classified under Community interaction. It may interest you if you're just hanging around. adamant has been kind enough to put many of the things I have mentioned or missed out on in one comprehensive place. If you want to check it out, see the Newbie Packets: https://www.writingforums.org/showthread.php?t=4989 Enjoy it here, and don't feel shy to ask for help. We are all here to teach and learn in a mutual environment. And we hope you can do the same. Regards and Best Wishes!

Hello Lynn, 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 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 on this site, therefore, is a true workshop, not just a bulletin board for displaying your work. See this post, Why Write Reviews Before Posting My Work? for more information. Enjoy your stay here, and have fun!
Hello and welcome to the forum I hope you have a great time here with all of us and I look forward to seeing your work around the boards. Torana
Heya Welcome to the forums, I look forward to seeing you around and I hope that you settle in alright.
Dear Writer, Welcome to one of the fastest growing writers forums on the web. I’m sure if you hang around long enough you’ll begin to make new friends and enjoy becoming a participating member of the writersforum.org. I am sure that you as a new member will bring something unique and valuable to the forum, as well as find it an interesting and wonderful place to explore and learn more about the wonderful world of writing. I have been away for awhile myself, and unfortunately have not been able to keep up with greeting the large influx of new members personally. Please forgive, but except my sincerest and belated welcome to the forum. Cordially yours, Trailer Trash
