Ever since I picked up a book I knew literature would be my life. The endless stories I read eventually lead me to writing, and writing lead me to W.com! The moment I became a member I was welcomed, and since then I have made so many friends, and learned so much, that I don't know what I would have done without this site. You may hear people call this "A home away from home" and you might laugh, but its true! My upgraded account lets me share my work with the community, and thus, share myself with the community. When you get a whole bunch of people together who love the same thing, you are bound to learn something, or at least meet someone who shares your interests. I truly have never found a safer, more fun, or more friendly site on the web, and I'm happy to say I'll be a member for a long time.
I have been a member of Writing.Com for a couple of years, and have never found a more cohesive group of people with a common focus. We are brought together by a single love that has many forms of expression: poetry, short stories, noveling, and so many more. Whether I am a novice or a professional, at any version of writing, there are people who will cheer me on, push me beyond my abilities, and force me to grow into a better author.
Writing.Com is not simply a website - It is a community that has helped me grow into something that exceeds simple talent and helped me to realize that I do not love to write for myself only, but can now acheive the dream of one day being published. And if I don't feel like writing, there are plenty of diversions to help me procrastinate effectively... and there are also groups of people to urge me on when I procrastinate too long.
Simply put, this is more than a website. It's a home, complete with family!
I have been a member of Writing.com since September 17th of 2004. I joined initially because I want to be a writer when I grow up (I'm 38). I was a shy, easily intimidated Newbie, but I jumped in with both feet. Since that time, I have learned more than I would ever have imagined! I'm constantly inspired! It is amazing.
I am continually learning from other writers. I have found the most helpful thing here for me, is what I learn in reading the work of other writers. (As a member of "Simply Everything" reviewing forum) When I give reviews, I identify what works for me from a reader's perspective, and what does not. It has been an invaluable experience.
The writers here are incredibly encouraging and supportive; they make learning fun! The contests are never ending (I've have placed in three so far) and have enjoyed reading the entries in all of them. I highly recommend this site to anyone who wants to stretch their wings and/or their imaginations. WRITE ON!
I have read many Testimonials on many different sites and for many different products. The ones on Writing.Com are special, you just have to read them to know that's true. What do I have to say about Writing.Com, well lots of things but I can't fit them all here. I used to be quite the Television watcher and although lifeguards in bikinis are great, I have just about quit Television all together. Simply because Writing.Com has taken up my leisure time. I had to make a choice; the choice was easy. I never read, I never Wrote, and I certainly never thought this would happen to me, but I found a community of people so special and dear that it has warmed my cold heart even though no lifeguards are near.
There is so much to do on this site it is endless and it is growing. Come join me and speak, listen, and learn, I had my chance now it's your turn you won't regret it, come on get going!
A year or so ago, a dear friend of mine called me on the phone and told me excitedly that she had found the best website ever. I checked it out for myself, and was immediately hooked. The more I got to know people, the more I wrote, the more hooked I became. I visit Writing.Com more than any other site, even more than my college's website for blackboard!
I enjoy your site immensely and most importantly, it has taught me to really concentrate on my writing. The members are awesome, helpful and friendly. I couldn't exist artistically without it. Thank you.
I joined Writing.Com just recently and I am thrilled. At first I wondered if the site would really help me out, so I joined on what I thought would be a temporary basis. Well, now I just don't want to leave! I crave the great reviews that people give, and I love to give them in return! My writing has probably improved in even just this short time, and I have the people here on Writing.Com to thank for that. Thanks so much for the support, the fun, and the place to store my works!
As I sat in the shadows
of the cliffs that surrounds
the little community of Writing.Com,
I saw the stirrings of the strange dwellers
of this little bit of cyber space.
Occasionally wandering in and out
of the confines of their earthly realm
to relax and seek refuge
from the strains of reality.
Here surrounded by the warm embraces
of those distantly challenged,
they lose themselves in the kindness
of others of their liking.
Strangely drawn through the vastness
of this electronically created universe,
to find that they are not alone
in their thoughts of yearning.
That others too must travel
the trails of troubles,
forever searching the depths
of their hearts in hopes
of finding in others
what they themselves lack.
And it is here I come
at last to lay me down
the burdens of another day.
To share with all,
the joys I find in the warmth
of your company.
And pray that we also
may be blessed by the words of comfort.
And comforted by the words of the blessed.
Writing.Com is absolutely fantastic! I never thought that I could find a site that I was addicted to -- I was wrong! You can find ANYTHING on here, from seeking reviews for yout item, to seeking advice for real life. And the staff here are so amazing! They keep everything under control. I never get bored here. THANK YOU THE STORYMASTER AND THE STORYMISTRESS, YOU ARE THE BEST!
I've been with Writing.Com for a little over a month and I think its great! I've been getting a lot of feedback and I have made my stories much better than they were before. I'm thinking of upgrading to an upgraded membership for the better features. I love Writing.Com!
If you're just visiting Writing.Com, welcome! Here you will find a huge breadth and depth of material that will entertain, challenge and interest you. Come back often. Even better, join up. Your membership is free and the benefits are terrific. The people here are helpful and truly interesting. Thank-you, Writing.com for one fantastic site.
I have been a member of Writing.Com for over two years, and I can honestly say it's changed my life. Writing.Com has given me a place to go to vent, to express myself, and to associate with other people who share my same interests. I often find myself wondering about contests or my campfires when I'm away from the computer, planning how to write that new poem and how to shape a new character. Without Writing.Com, my initial interest in writing might have turned into a forgotton pass-time. Thank you, Writing.Com, for always helping me stretch my skills and reach for the stars!
I love this web site. I have been a member for just anout a year or more. I love to write and this site also introduced me to the girl I love. Thanks Writng.Com.
Writing.Com is a wonderfully addictive writing community where all levels of writers can pool their resources and experiences, while continually encouraging and guiding one another to improve. This innovative site has helped motivate me to further nourish my imaginative muse and develop my writing ability into my young adult life. There's so much to do at Writing.Com, so if you're ever bored here, you're not exploring enough.
Just want to say how much I appreciate Writing.Com. I've gained tougher skin when receiving reviews, and I've learned a lot about my own writing by giving reviews. There is so much opportunity for creating and trying new things. All this in a safe and fun-filled community! I'm happy to be a part of it.
When I first found Writing.Com, I was so overwhelmed I just let it sit on my computer Favorites List for a few days. Then I got up my courage, joined and read over the FAQS. Now I'm on almost every single day and I enjoy it so much. My creativity has expanded, and this has been a tremendous answer to prayer. I've found fellow Christians to connect with, which is so rare on a mainstream site. And I have learned how to write poetry! I've really learned so much here and I haven't had to pay a dime. This is the only writing site that I've ever found that allows you to earn your membership or that has members who are willing to help pay for your membership. Truly amazing! While you're not going to find everything perfect here, this is the best writing site that I've ever found. You can start your own writing and discussion groups within it, and there's always plenty of inspiration and conversations to join in. The only negative, if it can even be called a negative, is that there's so many ideas it can make your head spin. Now that's an area of writing that I enjoy being in!
WOW...I didn't know that I could become so addictive to writing. I didn't even know I COULD write. In an attempt to try to find out what my life is about, (over and above being a wife, and a mother, and working to financially satisfy both roles) I came across THIS site and immediately joined in for a free membership. The creative juices that I didn't know existed (I had only written a couple of poems)began flowing and I couldn't stop. I was distraught when I ran out of space to post my "masterpieces" and upgraded after only 5 days. I have spent every spare waking moment on this site and have enjoyed it immensely. I look forward to contributing more, as I become accustomed to how everything works. I am truly thankful for finding you, and if I don't go any further than this, the support and encouragement I receive here is more than I had before, and has turned my life into something more interesting.
Thank you for that !
Writing.Com provides a place to write. Everybody knows that. What you really need to know about it is that it's a place where you can take your writing to places you never have before. And all along the road you get people's opinions on everything you write. It is so fantastic and I am grateful to be a part of it.
I've been a member since Stories.Com but hadn’t been very active. But this summer I needed a break from everything, having been burnt to something unrecognizably past charcoal. This site has poured cooling water on my wounds. I’ve yet to find a disagreeable unhelpful person. I need feedback on my writings and had been worrying that once I finally graduated this semester I’d be unable to get good peer feedback. But, now I know that’s not the case. I’ve enjoyed this site immensely and some days I forget to check my other email for reviewing stuff on here. Thank you Writing.Com for this opportunity. This community of helpful writers has put wind beneath my tattered wings and allowed me to soar again. Bless you all.
Finding Writing.Com was one of the greatest things that I did in my 11 years of life! I was searching by askjeeves.com when I saw the site. Then I asked my mom for a membership, not knowing how great the site would actually be. I've been a Writing.Com member for five months now, and I absolutely love it! I would never have gotten so noticed this early in my life if it weren't for Writing.Com. I've had 54 great portfolio views and reviews, all thanks to Writing.Com! I've entered contests, and written new stories. Writing.Com really encourages me.
I've also helped people, by reviewing them. It feels good to know that just for a short review, you may have really helped that person. Also, for helping someone, you get helped, with stuff like the review mixer! I love Writing.Com!
This is to all the guests visiting Writing.Com!
Come join the fun! Read, write and review. It is the best site on the net.
At least most of us have days we wonder if we're insane for being on this quest. I've found the best cure for those days, other than maybe a dose of every day life, is to log in to Writing.Com and read and review other authors on the same quest. On days I can't write, I find a fun survey or interactive story and just enjoy fraternizing with other authors. On days I begin to feel like I'm wasting my time, I read back through some of the wonderful reviews and change my mind again. I commend the site owners for everything they are doing for the world of writing. What they offer for free is so much more than most sites offer for a fee. Thank you, StoryMaster and StoryMistress!
This is my third month here now, and Writing.Com is still great! I have won a few contests and made a few new friends. I am having a great time here at Writing.Com and I say to anyone browsing here it is well worth the time!!!
I became a registered author merely a few weeks ago, and already I have received more than two dozen extremely kind reviews. As a person wanting to share what I've created, I was a bit worried about my talents as a writer... mainly if they were truly, "talents," or if they were falsities in my mind. Writing.Com has changed all of that, and I've found nothing but open arms embracing my works and myself; it is a wonderful feeling. Thanks to everyone who participates!
Oh my gosh! I love Writing.Com! In the two years or so since I first started writing seriously I have tried to find a site that would allow me to put up as much of my work as I wanted for free and get me great reviews too. I found [another site] but that was only for fan fiction. I found [another site] but I hardly got any reviews there. I found [another site] and discovered that I couldn't put up any work without buying an upgrade. And somewhere in there I found Writing.Com. Here I could get a free membership and post up to five items plus get great, helpful reviews. When I got the free premium trial I got more benefits (extra port space and access to Chat, where I have made many, many friends). I saved GPs for a one-month Upgraded membership and, a few months ago, my dad bought me a year-long Basic membership. I was ecstatic!!! I could create more items, I could visit my friends in Chat, I felt free as a bird. I love this site!!!
