Hi, my name is Ken. I'm new and intimidated. Calling me new to writing would be an understatement. I did the NaNoWriMo the past two years and enjoyed the writing very much. Now, I need guidance and polish to make the stories readable.
I'm a newbie

Welcome to AW. Hope you enjoy your stay with us.
How do you like your popcorn?
If you go to the bottom of the page to the ‘forum jump’ you can scroll down and find all the areas of this place. Most of the SYW areas require the password of ….vista. A word to the wise, (50 posts), it would be a good idea to participate first in helping others before you think about posting your own work. After you have been around here for awhile, then post something of your own for help. Good luck.

Welcome to the cooler, Ken, from a fellow Michigander! (Kalamazoo) You are not alone in your newness to writing. You are among friends. Nothing to fear.
I'd just avoid posting in Query Letter Hell for the moment.
Unless you enjoy intimidation.

Hi, Ken.
We sure are getting a ton of Michiganders here lately. I'm in Washtenaw myself.

Hi, Ken. Welcome.
I grew up in Michigan. Love for the Mitten! Can you send me some Rock & Rye? You can't find Faygo pop around here

Welcome from another new guy! No need to feel intimidated, however. I've been here a few days and still have all my arms and legs. Just remember that everyone has a different take on life, and the world ought to hear your tales wandering in this crazy place too!
Thanks everyone for the warm welcome. I'm here to learn so any links, books, or manuals that you found helpful will be appreciated. What areas am I looking for help with? All of them. Thanks in advance.
