Thank you, Philistine

I everyone, I'm pretty much new to writing. I can't say I've been doing it for a long time, only recently now again. I love the site nice community here.

Hi and welcome, Vedil.

Hi there folks, I'm new here. I write songs, short stories and poetry mainly for my own satisfaction not really with any intention of publishing, but I joined up here in order to get a little feedback on what I'm doing, bounce ideas around and hopefully up my game a little. So this is me throwing out a big hello to all and sundry.

Welcome to the site, Wallace.

Hello, my name is Ashley. I'm 26 (almost 27...) I live in England and have an eight month old son. I have always been fascinated by words. As a young girl I would read anything. My most favourite was Matilda, by Roald Dahl. I loved how she loved books, I think I wanted to be her really... My love of reading got sidetracked by my love of music, and I spent five years studying Music Performance. I began to fall back into the pages when I fell in love with Harry Potter. J.K Rowling ignited my love of reading once more. I had always written. Songs and poems mostly. But Rowling had done more than inspire me to read more, but she inspired me to write. I gave it a little effort, then became stuck on ideas and gave up. but, since having my son, I want more from life. I want to be great at something. I want him to be proud of me. And I most definitely do not want to leave my boy behind and go to a mind draining boring job. So, I am here to get focus. I am here to learn, to grow. To get inspiration, maybe even to inspire? Though, that would probably take some time. So... Hi, and thanks for having me.

Hi and welcome Ashley. Matilda was one of my favourites, too.

HI I'm very new here. I am a published author and poet and i love writing!! I hope you are all kind and i am looking forward to being part of this community.

Welcome to the forums, sonicfuzzball. WF is a friendly community as you'll find soon enough.

Hello everyone, just dropping by to introduce myself.

I'm a history teacher who enjoys writing, but finds it very difficult. I try my best when I write although I feel that I lack the creativity necessary to succeed in something more than personal writing. I joined the forum looking for a place where I can see my writing more clearly and learn a few things.

Hi, I'm Sophia... I am 21, single, no kids. I have been writing for as long as I can remember, it is something that I am very passionate about. I enjoy reading very much, also and I am looking forward to reading some good stories as well as posting my own.

Hello! I'm Missy.

I'm 17 and applying to university. I'm really nervous

I love reading, writing, poetry and films. I am really good at writing horror, but I want to write fantasy. I love reading a wide range of books from Dante's The Divine Comedy and Homer's The Iliad to Kelley Armstrong (almost all of her novels) and Maggie Stiefvater's Shiver

I have been writing since I could read (although I admit the earliest of my works were... questionable ). If I am stuck, or a part of my 'story' doesn't make sense, then my brother has always been awesome for ideas. He has been a tremendous help, but there are some things he just can't help with.

So that's kinda me in a nutshell. I'd really like some feedback on my own work and I would love helping others with their work. I'm excited for this! <3

Missy over and out.

Welcome, Cesar, Sophia and Missy.

Hello,

I'm Frances, and I've just wrote my first proper novel. I'm here, because I've put the novel online for download... and basically I've had no feedback and the only feedback I've got from posting bits and pieces on different forums, is negative.

It started off as just doing it for myself and I'm really proud, but now I kind of think it's rubbish... and this is novel one in a two part set so

Well that's why I'm here, for help really

Welcome to WF, Frances.
You could post the novel here for feedback. Don't let negative criticism put you off, one can learn from it as well. Try seeing things from their perspective and where you can change things, it'll help in the improvement of your novel.

Enjoy the site!
