Hello everyone. I've been a trial member for just a day but gave in and paid up - so here I am. This looks like a great place and I'm looking forward to getting to know you folk and your work.

Welcome Rosalie,

It is an amazing place.

I'm often struck by the ability of people here to give each other feedback in a constructive and supportive way. That's hard to do in a virtual environment, where the lack of spoken communication and non-verbals can lead to misunderstanding and where anonymity can protect anyone who does attack someone else. Other parts of the internet are a jungle, but WW is a nursery for writers.

Hope you enjoy it here.

Hello Rosalie, and welcome to WW.

‘a nursery for writers’ is a great way to describe this place, but it also caters for all levels, so there’s plenty of experience around.

Hello Rosalie, and welcome to WW.

Like all the best nurseries, WW's just as much fun for the older ones...

Emma

Welcome aboard!

Thanks for the warm welcome, everyone.

I'm bedding down nicely in among some very friendly fellow-seedlings and there's a lovely whiff of things thriving and growing

Look forward very much to reading people's work and getting feedback on mine. I've already investigated some of your websites and am intrigued.
