    Hello Elegant-Misfit,
    Welcome to the StoryWrite website!

    My username is Elisabeth but most people just call me Lis. Our site is a community of people who all share a common desire to write and hopefully become a published author sometime in the future. It is also a place to sharpen your writing skills and display your creativity while being in a fun environment!



    You will notice a gold medal by your name. This is a free trial gold membership. This shows you what options you have if you were a paid member of Storywrite.com. After approximately three days, the gold membership expires, reverting to a regular FREE membership, so please take the opportunity to see all that our site offers to you.



    We have a new members group on the site. This group was set-up to show you how to post your work onto the site and to give you an understanding of how the reading/reviewing of your work actually happens. If you have not already done so, I would suggest you take a peek into this group and see how this process works:



    New Members Group



    Along with a new members group, we have a New Members Contest that is held every month. Come and check it out. The contest is open to any new member:

    It is recommended that all new members to the site give serious consideration to joining a writing group as a method of assisting them in becoming an active member of the site. Most Storywrite members belong to groups to help them improve their writing skills, to socialize, talk about common interests or otherwise interact with other people of like mind. It is also a great place to make new friends and get helpful critiques.



    Group List



    You have joined at a great time. We now offer courses on how to improve your writing. Above you is a link that will take you to the classes that Storywrite offers: Learn.
