About This Newsletter

Welcome to the Noticing Newbies Newsletter! Our goal is to showcase some of our newest Writing.Com Authors and their items. From poetry and stories to creative polls and interactives, we'll bring you a wide variety of items to enjoy. We will also feature "how to" advice and items that will help to jump start the creation process on Writing.com

We hope all members of the site will take the time to read, rate, review and welcome our new authors. By introducing ourselves, reviewing items and reaching out, we will not only make them feel at home within our community, we just might make new friends!

*Frown* "But I'm not ready for this piece to be rated yet!." *Frown*


I’m sure it is frustrating to be rated when your item is not finished or in its best form. You may be relieved to know, there is a solution to this. In fact, there’s more than one, but in this newsletter, I will talk about Access Restrictions. Yes, there is a way to manage your access level while you are in the process of completing your work! *Bigsmile*

First of all, as you enter your piece in Static Item (or elsewhere), you will notice Section 2: Content and Access Control Settings. If you click the ‘down’ arrow by Access Restrictions, you will find several options in which to set your item…

1. Keep Private, For My Eyes Only!
2. Make Public, Allow EVERYONE!
3. Registered Users And Higher Only.
4. Registered Authors And Higher Only.
5. Preferred Authors And Higher Only.
6. Writing.Com Moderators And Higher Only.
7. Writing.Com Senior Moderators And Higher Only.
8. Writing.Com Staff And Higher Only.

Note: Your options will never show a higher level than your own. For example, if you are a Preferred Author, #5 will be the highest option shown, leaving out 6-8.

If you feel your work is not at its best or incomplete, you may want to pick ”Keep Private, For My Eyes Only". This item will not be visible to anyone except for you. When you are ready for ratings and reviews, you can easily change the access level right inside your portfolio! But don’t forget... after you have chosen a level, you must scroll down to Access Management Utility (AMU): and click on the button: Update Access Restrictions.

I just want to thank "Cubby" for adding my poem "Eternity" to the "Noticing Newbie" Newsletter this week. I am new to this site (3/6), and having one of my poems submitted to a newsletter, was both exciting, and special to me.
Thanks Cubby.:)

*Star* Thank you, Kathy! I am so glad you enjoyed it. *Smile*
