What this site does most for writers is prevent them from going stir crazy, and lets them set their work out into a world of people who are all trying to do the same thing. Keeping my previous works to myself, I decided to embark on a new style and ideas. This site has helped me define so many of my skills due to there being so many great writers with great opinions. You get hit from all sides are almost washed overboard by reveiws and suggestions. Insanity is key to being a writer, but let us keep that in check.
I am an avid reader and was getting bored because the books that I was reading weren't adding up to my expectations. Someone told me to start writing and I laughed because I am horrible at punctuation, sentences etc.. But - Since being on Writing.Com things have changed. I am still a little naive when it comes to my english, but I am happy to put a story out there. Writing.Com makes me feel proud to be able to write. Thanks for the site and helping me overcome my fears!
I have only been on Writing.Com since September, 2005, but the last couple of months I have really been on here and let me tell you that there are some really great poeple and charities that help with giving upgrades to the authors who really need it... or just to help anyone that needs the help! I personally love the reading and reviewing. I have learned a lot from other authors by reading their work. I have helped support a lot of the charities that have helped me out so far and just give to others when in need. I do not have a bad thing to say about here. Everyone helps each other out, always an auction, or contests going to help you get better at your own writing. If it was not for Writing.Com, I would not have the courage to put my work online to have someone read and hopefully will be able to publish in a few years. My creative writing teacher is the person who sent me here to this wonderful place. I have lots of wonderful friends here. I really do LOVE Writing.Com!
I have only been a member of Writing.Com for about 3 or 4 days and I already love it! I've visited the website everyday I get on the computer and stay on it for hours. This site is helping me improve my writing, and I'm also meeting new people every day. The people here are friendly and I haven't recived a single negative review even once! Writing.Com is like a second home to me.
I first found Writing.Com simply because I was looking for a place to store a story I was writing and perhaps show a few people. I never dreamed that what I'd find would be so much more. While the website is designed excellently, and while the tools provided are of the highest quality, the item that truly stands out for me is the people. The community here at Writing.Com is, by far, the best I have ever encountered. I have yet to have a single negative experience at all. Everyone - and I do mean everyone - is so incredibly friendly and helpful that I find myself surprised every time. I've only been here for a week, but it already feels like home.
Since joining Writing.Com, I have written more in the past four months than I ever wrote in the last ten years--and I've had more fun doing it! Thank you all for your support and all the wonderful works to read!
When I joined Writing.Com two months ago, I was overwhelmed at first. So many links taking you to so much more made me realize I could be apart of this ever-growing community. After writing and posting a few items, I was awarded a complimentary membership for my efforts. After it ends (July 18), I'm going to become an Upgraded (if not Premium) member.
Writing.Com - you have sparked the drive in me to write again, and to keep on writing! I've always enjoyed writing, but with a limited number of people I could share with, I was being held back. Now, I not only get to share my work with others, but I get feedback and support from my fellow members which I, in turn, get to reciprocate by doing reviews of their work. Way to go Writing.Com! A valuable and treasured resource for all writers of all skills and all ages.
Thank You for this wonderful site. I joined over two months ago and just lurked to see what the site had and did not write anything until I knew my way around. I had a light heart attack so I decided I better start writing NOW before anything else happens. Your sites are so supporting, the forums so orderly and everyone is so great about offering tips. I wish I would have found you sooner. And as you say WRITE ON!
I am very new to Writing.Com but in the short time I have been a member, I've written more, read more and interacted more than I ever have before. What a great site for aspiring writers. I have found a safe haven where it's okay to be judged and even better to be reviewed. I never would have thought before finding this site that it was okay to let other people read my work. But here it is not only acceptable, it's great fun! Thank you for giving us such a wonderful site!
I'm not a very good writer, but reading is a different story! There's all sorts of things on WritingDotCom! From HyperText Markup Language, to Harry Potter Fanfiction, to fantasy!
I find that my creativity level has exceeded a limit that was place on it. I owe this to Writing.Com I find that I can vent feeling and share experiences without offending anyone, or hurting the ones I love. This is the best web site and it will make you a better writer. It isn't so scary having your writing read by someone on this site. Not like when literary agents ask for a manuscript. The forum is carefree and positive and this site has saved my sanity. I just want to thank Writing.Com for that.
To get my work noticed was a big difficulty, as improving your work without suggestions and reviews is a bit difficult. Somehow one day I opened this site and it was the end of all problems especially the interactives of this site is fun. You get so much. This has now become a part of me.
I have been a member of Writing.Com since April. During the course of reading and reviewing, someone, who remains anonymous, was thoughtful enough to pay for an upgrade for me. I couldn't pay for membership, and still am struggling financially, but I know that I will have the opportunity to be an unknown angel one day soon. This site is really helping me to learn more about writing, and I'm discovering that there are a lot of talented writers out there. I also discovered, to my delight, that I am now on the google search engine! How wonderful! Bless you for having such a wonferful site!
If you are involved in a creative process, feedback is very important. When you allow yourself to show your work and discuss it, you also allow yourself to grow. As a writer, I know this and I truly appreciate the great opportunity given by Writing.Com. This is a great site, a wonderful community and a motivating tool for everyone.
I have only been a member for about a week but have found this website to be terrific. Everyone I have come in
contact has been so wonderful and helpful.
The writers on Writing.Com are more than just a bunch of people, they are a family. Everyone has their own personality and style, but they come together to help each other out. I have found more of a community spirit on Writing.Com than on any other writing website that I've participated in.
I've joined this website a month and a half ago by my friend, and found it very intersting. I got addicted to reviewing, and spend most of my time reading and looking at some fun things. This is also the first website I've seen for putting writings on. It's fastinating and useful for my schoolwork as well. I love it.
I like to give a testimonial because Writing.Com can let me express myself online. I've always wanted to be a writer. I would jsut keep my writings to myself and no one else, but me and God. Now I get to express myself in ways I've never imagined. I'm going to high school and when I become a famous author I will never forget Writing.Com.
I've been here one month, and am officially addicted to Writing.Com. I must check in at least twice a day--whenever I have a few minutes, to read someone's short piece, or late at night to peruse longer works. Such a broad variety of writing to choose from! I also receive many encouraging responses to my posted stories (and my first poem!) almost every day, and solid advice on how to improve. This site is one of the best uses for the internet, hands down. And it's free to get started! Thank you for this site!
Writing.Com saved my sanity. I was in the middle of the one of the hardest times in my life and I stumbled across this wonderful community. I was down on my luck and completely alone. The support of other writers gave me a reason to get back out there and fight and gave me something to be proud of myself for. I’m still continuing my battles, with varying success and throughout Wrting.Com, its competitions, groups and wonderful members have been a constant companion, often giving touching sentiment and many unexpected surprises. Thank you everyone.
I joined Writing.Com a couple of months ago and absolutely adored what I found. I found a community of people dedicated not only to writing, but also to helping others improve their writing. I was quite scared at first, having not written much of anything, but the acceptance and encouragement I found was awesome. I was so disappointed when I reached the limits of my free membership, I only took a couple of minutes to decide to upgrade and I'm sooo glad I did. I shall certainly be recommending Writing.Com for the top writing website! Thanks to those who keep this great site up and running!
My one month anniversary is coming soon. I'm still peeking into the corners and behind the doors in this mansion. There are so many features to spur a creative mind that I continue to be amazed by it all. Today's discovery was my "summary statistics" page. I am shocked to learn that an average of 75 people read something in my port EVERY DAY! I am pinching myself because I think that this must be a dream. Thank you, Writing.Com.
The support, encouragement, and constructive criticism I've received at Writing.Com is only surpassed by the generous spirit and kindness of the writers and moderators I've come to admire and appreciate. Reviewing has made me more discerning in my own writing and I am consistently challenged to try new forms of expression in my own writing. This is truly a Community, and each day I feel more a member, less a visitor. One year ago today I found Writing.Com ~ a year of growth followed that fateful day ~ in all facets of my life ~ fostered by the fellowship of this community of writers who accept me as I am and encourage me to become the best me I can be. My heartfelt thanks to everyone.
What I believe I love most about Writing.Com is the excellent learning environment that has been formed here. On other websites I have been to, I have often felt that I am exposed to the scrunity of unsympathetic strangers who have published countless novels, as I have not. I felt like my dream of being a novelist was unreachable, and my skill with writing less than inadequate. Then my friend referred me to Writing.Com, and I realized that I was capable of so much more than others had let me think I was. There is such a variety of experience and opinion among the writers and staff here! Whatever your style of writing may be, there will be someone on this site who will appreciate your work and do all that they can to help you improve it.
