Well, I'm not exactly new. Some of the parts you can't even get anymore. <insert rimshot here> I am, however, new to this forum. I am a published romance novelist (under 2 different pen names) and I am also writing the novel that I hope will break me out of genre fiction. Looking forward to getting to know everyone. Rosalinda

Hello Rosalinda (beautiful rose, en EspaƱol), 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. 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!
Congratulations on your publishing and on getting out of one genre, I find it difficult to write anything but meandering musings. Hopefully with your experience your arrival can be mutually beneficial and that you have a great time here whatever. See you around the site.
