Hi everyone!!!

I just wanted to stop and say hi. I've been lurking around for a while now and figured I should step out from the shadows. I am currently working up the courage to post a story. First one is the hardest right?

Hia Stoney.

Good to meet you; glad you've been enjoying the site. And now that you've stepped out of the shadows, I'm sure you'll be made to feel welcome

As for posting a story....? Go for it! I'm looking forward to reading it.

I't not hard posting a story! All you have to do is find the right forum, copy, paste and submit! What is hard is hoping and praying someone will not only read it but actually comment! That's why I love it here. Many generous souls with good intentions. (even if they don't know an Uncle Buff)

yeah,

we're all civilazed, well most of us...okay none of us. but we aren't cannibals so i think you're fairly safe. i haven't posted a story yet, so i can't say anything about that. besides advice on building one. it's important if you like it. that's all that really matters, writing isn't about others, it's a very personal emotion. brain speech maybe. who knows...


anyway, i always like to end greetings with a movie quote. SO! "May i take you purse as usual....or for the first time?" ~The Birdcage~

Hiya Stoney.

See, I'm new too, but I'm waiting until everyone gets to know me a bit before I post my writing. That way, when they're tempted to say "My god, this is HORRENDOUS!!!", they'll think "Oh, but this is that girl that hangs out in the forum, seems like a nice enough lass", and then they'll say something more along the lines of "great work, but there is room for improvement

Of course, if you're not a coward like me, just post your story and I'm sure you'll get some useful feedback.

Welcome to the forums. It shouldn't be hard to post up a story. No one will laugh or throw insults at you. Don't worry...

Enjoy!

Welcome to the forum, stoney! Feel free to post your story. We would love to read it, and I am sure we will try to give you our best insightful comments and constructive criticism if need be. Sadly I do not have the time nowadays to read, but rest assured that others will read it.

If you post it, they shall read.

See you around. Nyo~
