    Hello Fellow Wordsmiths!

    ...cheesiest possible thread title: check...

    My name's Evan, 21, and I must admit, rather new to the writing game. Nice to meet everyone
    Been feeling more and more determined lately and was hoping to find a place to share/give back/beat my "lonely writers syndrome" once and for all!
    I'm thinking a community like this could be just the thing to give me a swift kick in the ass, for lack of a better phase.
    I'd be happy to help critique/offer my thoughts, of course, before I post any original work (and throughout my stay).
    Had a quick question though: Are there any groups here or there that like to set deadlines for each other? Or are there even groups? I'm a deadline-powered kinda guy or I find myself procrastinating...

    Thanks!

    Welcome, Evan. There are groups on the site, you could go through them to see if you find what you want.

    Welcome to the community, Evan.

    If you like deadlines, do check out the "Challenges, Contests and Prompts" forum.
    How To Get Critiques On Your Work: WF is very much a give and take community, meaning the best way to get constructive critiques and comments on your work is to give them to others.
