Congratulations on joining Writing.Com. And I might add, thanks for taking time to seek out and read this newsletter. If you're really new and are joining us for the first time, be sure to sign up for this and the many other fine official WDC newsletters. Written by Moderators and Senior Moderators, the WDC newsletters are a wealth of knowledge, advice and information about the inner workings of Writing.Com. You can find more info on newsletters in one of my previous editions, "Newsletters: Information for the Masses" .
Another archived Noticing Newbies newsletter you might find of interest is one by a fellow editor, Stephanie Grace  , "5 Things Every Newbie Should Know" . I thought I'd expand a little on her informative offering with some newbie specific groups, forums, and items. Be sure to check out each listing to see if something special piques your interest.
First, here are a couple WDC listings of which you may or may not be familiar:
I believe they are pretty self-explanatory.
There are several listings created and maintained by members on WDC. Each person is responsible for updating and maintaining the content for their listing.
Check out this class to help you navigate around WDC.

Take some time soon to visit these sites. Bookmark them by pressing the Plus Icon in the item's header information to easily return to them later. I believe you'll find a lot of helpful folk with loads of great advice.
Good hunting, my new friends.

And from the mailbox about my last Noticing Newbies newsletter, "What's Your Comfort Zone?" .
From Quick-Quill  : Kudos for a great Newsletter. I love that you are encouraging to those just starting out. I don't remember, but it would be great if every new person that enrolled on WDC was assigned this "newbies" newsletter. I missed so much until I found the Newsletter section.
That would be nice. But for now we just rely on word of mouth. Of course, I hope you folks check out all the newsletters. You never know where that next idea will come from.
From BIG BAD WOLF is Howling  : I remember my first real "Negative" review- basically the guy claimed that there was no way a human could ever hope to kill a dragon. I'll show it to you if you ask. I looked at that person and said, "Somebody lost every D+D match they played." I ignored them, and continued writing the story. Seems enough people like it, as they keep reading it.
Indeed....
From Zheila : Hi Jace; You always do give good advice.
Thank you very much. 
From myrddin_sr: Thanks Jace for the help in the news letter I'm new and it is very helpful. Keep up the good work in helping us newbies.
Always my pleasure, my friend. Good luck with all your writing endeavors.

That's great. Check them out.
From dogwalker : Uh - my comfort zone? When it's quiet and I can think / write / rewrite / to my hearts content or I need to do something else. Sometimes an idea comes while driving that's interesting; I have to keep it in mind while navigating the streets & roads. Got a poem for my wife that way once though I guess it's O.K.
Enjoyed the article though. there's too much of WDC to explore all at once! Sort of like moving to a strange town. Learn the major streets first, then the side roads, alleys, dead ends etc. You never know, a pleasant surprise might be just around the corner, over that hill, down that by-way. :)
Well said, my friend.
