Since October of 2000 I have been a member on Writing.Com. When I first begin writing as an author. I received help from many members of all case colors. They gave me the inspiration that increased my confidence as a writer. Some of the inspiration came from negative critiques as well as positive ones. Today when I think back to the members who gave their r&rs for my items. I realize how inportant it is to be honest and polite in my critiques. For we all write differently each has his/her special way of conveying their feelings. Here at Writing.Com this is why members like the site so much. They can express their feelings as they choose in their items, as long as there is no malicious intent. Thanks to the StoryMaster, and StoryMistress leadership all goes well. Not only do we have a great writing community, but we have great leaders here on Writing.Com
I love Writing.Com. It's provided me with a place to submit my work and read others. I've always loved writing, and I have improved so much thanks to this site. The members are great, and provide encouraging feedback and tips. I don't know where I'd be without Writing.Com. Thanks so much!
Simply HIGHLY addictive! Extremely effective as a refresher to one's soul. Writing.Com was the answer to my dreams. As a passionate writer, I had long been searching for an online site created JUST for writers. Hence, when I finally found THIS, I embraced it thoroughly; Writing.Com became my best friend. You will love it too! I dare you to just come and step into this wonderfully magical site created just for WRITERS.
I used to write- for many long, torturous hours into the night – aeons ago, in college. Then I stopped. Recently, an old, old friend asked – why don’t you write anymore? I had no answer so I started again.
You can write for yourself, as I do – but you need somewhere like Writing.Com, which I found by fluke, to display your work, receive feedback and to get an understanding of where you stand as a writer.
Writing.Com is much more than just a shop window for writers, it’s a vibrant community, where I have met people whose advice and friendship I have come to cherish. Thank you Writing.com for bringing something new into my life – something I hadn’t even realised I was missing...
Lets see... Friendly and helpful people; a place to display my talented writing (humble I am); a place to get honest feedback from other writers; a place to gain knowledge; develop friendships; develop new talents;improve my writing skills and to just sit back and let my hair down. I ask you this. What's not to like? What are you waiting for? Come on, it's free for crimeny sakes! Register and join the best family of writers anywhere at Writing.Com.
Well, I still can't believe in February of 03, I would be sitting here. In October, I was granted a precious gift of Basic to a friend of mine and I used it to all it was worth. Writing.Com has shown that my writings are in constant need of improvement and I don't have to go begging for people to see it. They want to see it. What I want is people to tear it shreds, examining and critizing it.. and Writing.Com gives me that. :: bows:: Thank you.
I have been with Writing.Com for three months and I am loving it. I have been able to put my thoughts and stories in my port. People have been sending me reviews and it has help me making my stuff better. I love this site. I can't get enough of it.
Years and years ago I was told that I had a raw talent for writing. Being here has helped me to become a much better writer and a better person. I found Writing.Com when it was Stories.Com... I've been here over a year and a half, yet every day I find something new. The people are awesome. Everyone cares, and they truly like helping each other out. I wouldn't give up the friendships I've made for anything in the world. If reality were like Writing.Com, the world would be a MUCH, MUCH better place to live in. Thank you especially to the StoryMaster and Mistress, you two are the best!
I first came to this site (with a different account which I regrettably had to leave) about two years ago, randomly surfing the internet. Talk about serendipity! I love being able to make new and encourage new friends with the same interests here at Writing.Com... Not to mention reading, writing, reviewing, groups, and the list goes on. If you haven't already, I encourage you to join this great online community today!
I joined Writing.Com a year ago as a means to publish the few pieces I've written, but have found instead a place that helps nurture the creative spirit within anyone that wishes it. There are so many helpful, encouraging people on the site that I find myself spending virtually all my internet time browsing authors of all skill levels, writing about anything and everything you can imagine - and probably some that you can't. The best part (for me) is reading authors new to the site. I've always loved writing - now I love reading and reviewing! Thanks Writing.Com!
I've been writing poetry for going on 13 years. Although I haven't many written, I still write. I found this site through a writer's magazine... Writer's Digest to be exact. I'm glad I found this site. I've been a member for 7 months now. I'm glad I've found fellow writers to share my passion with. Writing.Com is the best site about writing I've found so far.
Writing.Com made my writing. Before I came here, I wrote, but I didn't ever finish anything. Coming here and getting feedback encouraged and helped me to develop, and now I'm finishing short story after short story and loving every minute of it. I just started my first novel!!!
This site is so awesome! I have been searching for a place to post up my poems and lyrics for constructive critism. And not only do I get reviews on my works, but I also make friends! Everyone here is so nice. It's really great to have a place that's understanding and can appreciate the fine arts.
I first found Writing.Com when it was Stories.Com. I have always loved to read, and my Dad would ask me once in a while why I wasn't reading online books-- so I decided to do a search for stories online... which brought me to this site. It looked facinating. When I got a desktop computer, I thought about joining. It didn't take me long to decide that it would be an exciting thing... I haven't been here long; but I have enjoyed it. It has made me more self-confident about my writing skills, and it is fun as well. For me, this site has been very enjoyable; I even find myself writing more than I used too... which really changes your perceptions of stories sometimes! I would recommend this site. There are some really good stories in here, and they can be worth the time it takes to find them.
Hi, I've recently just found Writing.Com. I truly enjoy coming into this site and reading other authors' stories and being able to write freely. Writing.Com, you all are a joy and I thank you.
This is more than a community here. It's like a small city. Every time I think I've seen all there is to see, I'm pleasantly surprised! In only 3 months I've not only found an outlet for my writing, I've gotten 99.5% useful constructive feedback, I've met a mentor, made friends and been adopted as a grandson by Jenny Wren! I can't ask for better. I'm even getting used to all the references to boogers. 
Thanks Writing.com!
When I first found Writing.Com, I didn't do anything with it but then when an email came saying my membership was going to be cancelled due to inactivity I quickly signed back up. Since then I have upgraded my membership so I could put novels in and have more portfolio items. I love getting comments on my poems and looking for new stories to read. Thank you so much Writing.Com for making me put my items out there.
Writing.Com is the first ever writing website I've been to. It is a good place, and everyone makes me feel welcome around here. I've enjoyed writing but I show my work to few people I know as I'm rather shy. Writing.Com gives me a chance to show my work to people and let them rate me although my works have not been rated yet. I've sent in my entry to a first fantasy writing story and I hope to see how I fair compared to the other writers here. It's a great website. :)
If you're a frequent guest to Writing.Com, all I can say is "What are you waiting for? Join now!" There are so many benefits to being a member. This is a wonderful site to give or gain feedback and make new friends. I am so glad I stumbled across it!
I was always looking around for a website to put my poetry up and finally I found Writing.Com. Not only do I get to read other's writings but they get to read, rate, and review mine. It's a very good setup and I really enjoy the organized look of it all. About a week after I joined I paid for a upgraded membership so I could put up more of my writings. It was definitely worth it. My time here at Writing.Com is well spent.
FIRST TESTIMONIAL: My entry into Writing.Com was rather oblique. I started translating into English some popular Hindi movie songs for non-Hindi knowing members of a mailing list. Having got appreciation for that, I started writing my own ghazals in Hindi, but, these had again to be translated into English for those not knowing Hindi. After I had written about 50 ghazals bilingually, a friend suggested I join Writing.Com. After joining Writing.Com, I was not active on it for a month as I found the site too complex and rather cumbersome. But, once I spent some time on it and got used to its intricacies, I am now a part of it; rather, it is now a part of me. I can’t visualize myself as being separated from it. It might look laughable, but I do spend long hours on it. I have spent almost all my waking time in last 48 hours on this site, yet, it does not seem to be enough. There is so much here—learning newer poetry forms, writing styles, constructive feedback, contests, prizes, knowledge base in various disciplines, entertainment, an interactive community, etc. etc. Joining Writing.Com has transformed my life. I am not the same person any more. This seems to be, to me, the third major change in my life: FIRST, developing into a medical professional; SECOND, developing as a lawyer specializing in medico-legal area; THIRD, developing as a poet. I am lucky to have found and joined Writing.Com. SECOND TESTIMONIAL: I wrote a testimonial when I was 6 months in writing.com. Now 16 more months have passed and I think it is time I update my thoughts about Writing.Com. Writing.Com has made a poet out of me and the best way to send a tribute for this would be in the form of a poem! **** I NEVER THOUGHT A DAY WOULD COME / I never thought a day would come / When I would set aside
My scalpel and my stethoscope /
And also my coat white. / I never thought a day would come /
When I would be in black, /
Arguing in the courts of law /
That my client is not bad. / I never thought a day would come /
When I would be contrite /
So as to say I’m a poet /
And poems I do write. / I owe it to Writing dot Com /
That I write poetry /
In rhyming traditional form and /
Syllablic symmetry. /
Thanks, for teaching poetry, to /
Writing dot Com are due. /
It taught me to write and also /
How to send a review. / * Written in 8-6-8-6, abcb format. THIRD TESTIMONIAL: As I complete my four years on writing.com today, I do so with a sense of achievement in having metamorphosed from a novice to someone who knows a few of the tricks of the trade, courtesy this unique site. WDC, as the site is often called, has the following unique and distinctive features that set it apart from others: rating system; review system; incentive system for reviews; GP award system for contest winners and reviewers; community recognition score system; and, a system of a variety of paid memberships, all of which can be purchased for cash or through accumulated GP. It is a pleasure and privilege to be a member of writing.com. It has taught me a lot.
All that I can say is that this is the best webpage I've found.
I sort of stumbled upon Writing.Com by accident but boy am I glad I did. I had been struggling to become published for more than ten years and now, thanks to Writing.Com, I will soon have several of my children's stories published. This writing community is a perfect place for both the novice and experienced writer to receive constructive, positive and honest reviews. I'm glad there is a place like Writing.Com for writers to come together and receive encouragement and support.
I believe that only very special and gifted people could have created this place. I have only been a member for a short while, and it is already a very enjoyable part of my life. I am saving for a lap top so I can be online more often in this creative, generous, and friendly community.
You have given thousands of people so much. This is not just a place to develop writing skills, but also a place of friendship and support. A place to express feelings, and to relieve stress. A place for people to share their souls. Hundreds of years ago, people used to tell stories instead of watching television. Sadly, that tradition has been lost. You have recreated this tradition in a modern setting. You should be so proud. Thank You.
I found Writing.Com by accident, while looking for a site about famous authors. I found something that was totally different than what I had been looking for, but am now truly happy to have done so. I've found many people who are interesting and compassionate, yet also a place where I can post my own writing. To have people who will take the time to read it, then give me a review. This is an excellent site, and I have told all my friends about it.
