When I was younger I was never really into writing and anything that dealt with it. But on coming from this site, I found how well of a writer I am. Writing.Com has helped me a lot in finding the poet and story writer in me. Though I only got three items on this site, I have many more out of the site that I will submit soon. Thank you, Writing.Com for helping find the writer in me and allow me to start a novel.
Before I discovered Writing.Com, I mainly posted my work on [another site] and I got some nasty reviews. This discouraged me and caused writer's block. I stopped posting my work on the internet because I was afraid of getting more nasty reviews. Then I found Writing.Com through a link from nanowrimo.org and I got encouraged. I browsed the site and I saw no nasty revies anywhere. I posted a poem in my portfolio and received many positive, helpful reviews. I now have many ideas for stories and have almost no problem with writer's block because of high self esteem.
I feel like I´ve finally come home.
I have been a member of various online writing communities, but none come close to Writing.Com. The other communities seemed to foster nothing but bashing. There was no such thing as a support system. Here, I've found nothing but support! Before joining, I had almost run out of steam. I was ready to give up writing all together for a wide variety of reasons. This site has jump-started me again. The community is positive, intelligent, and fun. Thanks to everyone at Writing.Com!
I think Writing.Com is not only a gift, but an enormous learning experience. Although I am attending school f/t, work p/t and do volunteer work in the summer, I still see it as being an important piece to my puzzle! Thank you all for putting so much effort into it! I give the staff an A!
After being a member of this site for only 5 days, I am AMAZED at how it has impacted me as a writer. I was afraid to submit my work at first, but after the flood of encouraging feedback I received I gained a whole new level of confidence in myself. Now I am writing more pieces then ever before (and actually letting people read them)! Thank You from the bottom of my heart, your site has brought us aspiring authors together in such a unique way, I could never repay what you have give me.
Several years ago, I attended a writing camp that left me discouraged. The camp councilors suggested that while my writing was "decent", I would never get anywhere. I almost quit writing at that point, and as I was later married and made a mother, my hobby slipped by the wayside. One afternoon, however, I was compelled to type--purely out of the sake of curiosity--"writing.com" to see what came up, if anything. Here I was! I was skeptical, as I hesitate to join internet communities, but I kept coming back for another look. Quickly, I was hooked, and I haven't left since! Now a preferred author, I tackle my writing daily through journals, groups, reading, reviewing, and the support from the community in general. My writing has improved, and I sleep better at night! Thank you, Writing.Com!
Yippee, it's my first year with Writing.Com and I just love this site more each day. Although I don't get to write as much these days, boring work and daily tasks get in the way, I still allow myself a little time to search this site. I learn new things everytime I log in.
My grateful thanks to all who have taken the time to read and review my jottings, the feedback has been wonderful. I look forward to seeing Writing.Com grow and grow in the years to come.
Writing.Com has provided support and information about writing that I never thought I would find on the internet. EVERYONE who aspires to write should find comfort here!
I'm finding myself more and more excited about this site. Unfortunatly my writing is not attuned to the people I physically know, so it is hard to find decent feedback that is not tainted with uncomfortable fore-knowledge. This site has enabled me to get broader feedback on my writing. Thanks so much to everyone who has reviewed me, and thanks you all to those who have brightened my day with their words!
I have taken a few writing courses but I am gaining a great deal more from becoming a member of Writing.Com. I can read an incredible variety of authors and I learn from every one that I read. At the same time I am getting reviews of my work that I vaule and respect. If you love to write or just like to read, this is the best place to be!
...when I first came / To Writing.Com / I was a stranger /
(aren’t we all!) / I posted shyly / My first poem / Five minutes later / There came a comment! / It made me happy / It made me glad / I was encouraged / And that was fun! / From that day forward / I made new friends / I’ve read some stories / Well written and said! / I am so grateful / To be a part, / Of a community / So radiant!
I was a quiet writer, if that makes any sense. I didn’t let anybody read my work, and nobody but a few friends actually knew I was a poet. Then I came here and everything changed. My work changed dramatically as I found out what people liked and what they didn’t like. I became a better poet as time went on. I would just like to say thank you to Writing.Com for bringing out the best in my work. This is a great site that I’m happy to be a part of.
When I first came upon Writing.Com (then Stories.Com) a few years ago, I made a username and ended up forgetting about it. When I got e-mails reminding me about my account, I decided to seriously check out the site, and now I'm hooked. Before Writing.Com, I never showed anyone what I wrote, but now I have the courage to do so. I've gotten many helpful reviews that made me a better writer, and it also helped me decide to major in creative writing in college. Thank you so much for making such a wonderful place!!
If you are a writer, then Writing.Com is sweet addiction!
I joined over three years ago, and I am so glad I've stayed on! I became addicted within five minutes! The inner writer in me has burst forth, and now I'm majoring in English in college next fall, planning on publishing, things I would've never dreamed of beforehand! Thanks to every supportive friend I've found on here!
I'm on sevearal writer's websites. I like the response I get from Writing.com. There's always some notice of what I post, much more than on most other websites. I write poems, book reviews, articles, and I wrote a book. I have nine articles that are excerpts from my book. I'm pleased that people on Writing.com read my articles. I hope that will interest them in my book.
I'm a newbie of just over two weeks and I've found my HOME FROM HOME. I can't wait to log on and see what's new everyday on this EXCELLENT site. There are so many things to get involved in, that it's sometimes difficult to log off!! I even have to fight my husband sometimes for the computer!!
In my short time here I've found very helpful and generous people, who try to solve any problems in all ways. They just make me feel so welcome!!
Thanks Writing.Com for such a wonderful experience!
I believe that this is a truly wonderful website. It offers excellent opportunities to unofficially publish your work as well as a system for rating and review.

Writing.Com has done wonders for me! I found this website last June while browsing the internet looking for the perfect website for writers. This website has truly allowed me to let my creative side loose and I am now about to get a book published because of how this website helped me become a better writer. Thank you!!!
Writing.Com is amazing! No, Stupendous. Breathtaking. Absolutely wonderful. In fact, the magnitude of goodness that Writing.Com is can't be expressed adequately in the english language. I signed up a month ago, and already I feel like a member of the community. And a great community it is, full of kind, honest, and accepting people. I recommend it to anyone who takes reading and/or writing seriously. Perfect. 6 stars. 3 thumbs up. Writing.Com, keep up the good work!
I've been here awhile now, and I've read many testimonials. I've not written one before now because I didn't think there was anything left to be said. Everyone has covered all the great aspects of Writing.Com. I didn't think that I could say anything that hasn't been already said.
I finally figured out that it didn't matter. I could repeat all that had been said, because it's the truth!
Writing.Com is a home away from home. It's my second home. It's the place I visit everyday to be with my friends and new found family. It's the site I visit to read and entertain myself. It's the site where I post my writing and receive helpful feedback.
It's the site I truly love. It's a site that everyone should try out.
It's the best site on the World Wide Web.
And, that's the honest truth.
This site is simply the best! I am have been able to develop my skills as a writer and obtain great feedback. I have also made some good friends among the many excellent writers out there. This is no doubt the best writers' site on the Web and I am so glad to have found it. Thank you StoryMaster and StoryMistress!
Having recently decided to write my first book, I had been spending a lot of time online looking for a "writing group" to join. (Per the advice of my mentor, a very wise woman!) Up until two days ago, I hadn't found a place that had a good number of members, or that felt "comfortable" to me! I kept looking. And looking is what I was doing when I found Writing.Com! I think fate was on my side that day, two days ago, and here I am! In just two short days I have found out just how lucky I was to come across this place. Writing.Com had provided me with so much information, and inspiration to boot! ;) I've already recieved great reviews on my writing, and am more inspired now than ever! Thank you so much to the creators and to those who maintain this site! Premium Membership/1 year - $135.00 Upgraded Membership/1 year - $45.00 Writing.com Membership at ANY level - PRICELESS!
It's only natural that I agree with the outstanding testimonials about Writing.Com. Like many people in the Writing.Com world, I was here when in was still Stories.Com. Now I'm not an extraordinary writer but it is something that I need on a day to day basis. I appreciate the opportunity for the Free Trial Premium Membership. It gave me a small glimpse at what I'm missing. One day, when I get my GPs built up, or some actual green stuff in my pocket (no not kiddies boogers!), I'll upgrade. Until then, I'll survive...because I have my Writing.Com family.
