Newbies Academy Showcase Thank You I would just like to say a great big thank you to everyone who made December my best month ever on WdC. I was part of the Newbies Academy Showcase, and received many wonderful, helpful, positive reviews, merit badges, awardicons, signature images, encouragement and good wishes from WdC members. I appreciated them all very much. Being part of the Showcase has been incredibly affirming and encouraging. Before joining WdC I knew I wanted to write but wasn't quite sure if I could - now I know I can write stories that people want to read, and that is the best feeling ever. . I would like to say a very special thank you to Jim Hall who was my Showcase Supporter. Jim encouraged me, gave me some very useful tips, and found many opportunities to promote me and my work and say great things about me!. I am sure we will remain great WdC friends, Jim - I have very much enjoyed working with you and getting to know you. I would also like to especially thank sybarrios for all her support during the Showcase and the prep month and for the wonderful job she does in organising it all. And of course, for inviting me to be part of the Showcase - it has been an honour. ** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** |
Hiya Peaches! I hope your stay at WDC is blessed. I'm a newbie as well and so far my time here has been amazing. I hope you have fun, learn a lot and meet lots of incredible friends! ~ Hanna |
Thanks Hanna, and I am glad to hear that you are loving the site. For so long I have wanted to write, but there was never really anything to give me the impetus I needed. Going to a writers weekend earlier this year was the first thing that finally got me started, this site is the second and I can see that it will be a central part of turning me into (hopefully!) a real writer! |
You're welcome, Peaches! I definitely think the steps you're taking will lead you in the right direction of becoming a real writer. By "real writer " I'm guessing you mean published. There are several published writers on this site. Have fun and happy writing! |
Welcome once again I see from your port that you write flash fiction. You might like to try
It's a bit harder than some contests as you only have 300 words to write your story, but it's a great challenge. |
Hi there, from one newbie to the next: Welcome at WdC. You'll love it here. Since you already entered a few contest I recommend this one: Write on!
