Be sure to check out all the fun activities and contests under Community (on the left side of the screen of your computer) and then click Activities or click Contests or any of the other links on there. You (probably) won't break WdC, so click around.
Another place to check out is the Community Newsfeed. When you click Newsfeed on the left, it automatically takes you to your Personal Newsfeed. Here you will see official WdC stuff and things posted by anyone whose plus sign you have clicked at least once (but preferably twice). Along the top, you will see View the Community Newsfeed. Click that and you'll see what EVERYONE is posting on the Newsfeed (within your rating limit), not just your tiny corner of WdC.
This is what I'm talking about for the plus...

No pressure to double click mine, though you are welcome to, of course.
Anyway, get out there and meet people! Oh, and if you find an activity you want to keep up with, don't double click the plus on the bitem (big item) link like you see below.
Join by entering a contest a month for 12 months--Win Badges! Catching up is allowed!

(That's my challenge--you're welcome to join--I'm teaching AND advertising.
You have to go into the item and double click the plus in the upper right corner, not the one by the person's name. Otherwise, you are just fanning that person, not the item.
Anyway, welcome!
If you need anything, can't find something you're looking for, just ask.
And welcome to the world of writers!
