Hi Jake.
Yeah, WF is a good place to get advice and comments on a story, and you might get some bad comments on a story from time to time, but overall, any comments can help you to improve your writing skills. Also, as an unspoken rule (sorry Hawke), critique someone's work and the favour will be returned.

Hello and welcome to WF, Jake. Great to have you here.
We have people here from all over the world, so replies can come anytime.
As for the line. Nope, I don't mind a bit, mostly because it's not my line, only the truth of any writing forum. So, carry on spreading the word!
By the way, I'm a gal. (lol) Just saying.
