I've returned from my Christmas break. It was amazing! I hope everyone else's was as well. I will be getting on putting out pieces of work again shortly and back to commenting and contests just give me time to get caught up with all I missed those two weeks I was gone. Thanks everyone! Happy New Year!


I LOVE to write. I've had publishing offers. Everyone loves my work. I'm known to my friends as THE writer. I find it amusing. I love horses and NASCAR! I'm a true southerner (misplaced in the north for now lol). Please check out my Allpoetry.com work also. Although stories are my strong point, my poetry is semi-good. I hope you enjoy my work on both sites. Contact me if interested in talking.

  • tallblondie : Welcome! on December 19, 2008
    Hi ShiningNShadows,

    Welcome to the StoryWrite website!

    My username is tallblondie but most people just call me Blondie. 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 – you never have to pay to be a member of Storywrite!

    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:

    New Members Contest

    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 to the classes that Storywrite offers: Learn. For example, one such class is ‘Let’s Get Published’. There are many more. If interested please click the above link or this one.

    Included below are a few quick tips that have proven to be very helpful to new members in doing some of the basic functions necessary to get yourself set-up and running on the site.

    Getting Reads and Promoting
