I'm AwfulbigAdventure on LM, and Wallmaker on WF.com. So, saw some of the same kids over here and thought I'd play, too. I'm mainly into screenwriting these days, just about to get my masters in film school, but have a free and form poetry background and a steady foundation on short stories. Anyway, hello. -Kay
Hello Ms. Adventure (couldn't resist!), Welcome to the Writing Forums. You may find some refreshments here and there, but avoid the Jonestown Koolaid. 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!
I come bearing the cookie tray! It's invisible. Welcome to WF.org. It's a zany, fun place. Enjoy your stay.
Thanks for the welcomes. Cookies, candies, oh my. :: pours her kool aid politely into the planter of a ficus tree::
