How'd You Find This Site?

I found this site on Write4Kids.com. I agree with you, it has all sorts of info and encouragement for new and seasoned writers.

I found this via a rift in the space time continuum

Hi everyone. I wound up here while investigating whether or not a literary agency for children's authors was on the up and up or not. After seeing all of the help offered to someone else that asked about the same place, I thought this might be a good spot to spend time and see if I can't get further in my writing career.

I got here through a Google search on PublishAmerica. Sadly, it was too late to stop me from signing with them, but I've stayed because of the support offered to people caught up in the whole PA mess.

It does feel like home here.

Me too! This is home.

I don't even remember how I found this place.
But I got lots of e-mails from screenplay sites, and it might have shown up there. Or just through an Internet search for writers' forums.

A published author sent me this way. I am a newbie at the publishing game and I have had so many rejections I was really getting discouraged...hopefully here I can find comfort with others that are in my postion....

I was researching an article on "Make a Kazillion Dollars EVERY WEEK Working at Home!" emails, and followed the scattered brick road all the way here.

Then I decided I like the coffee, the chairs are comfy, and the entertainment seems endless, so I chose to stay!

How I found it

I was diligently writing and googled whether hell was capitalized. TA DA, a whole new world for me to spend time on instead of figuring out if my character is really the love child of a mutant swamp monster and the gym teacher.

On one of the other forums I visit on a daily basis (bloody-disgusting one), there's is a section for fans. And one day, someone made a thread called The Writer's Thread, in which someone posted a link to AW. I was curious, clicked it, and became hooked since.

I was surfing the internet and just happened to stumble across this site.

I was told by a friend many months ago.

My friend writes Fantasy and novels. She is yet to be published. Seems you are all so accomplished.

I jotted the website address down on a sticky note when I was surfing, and didn't actually get here for a few days after. I believe it was another writing forum, more specific to online writing.

I had the site passed on to me by Andrea Phillips, who is apparently a member here, but has a different user name.

I honestly don't recall...

I know it was through google, I don't remember exactly what I searched, but I'm glad I got here

my mother introduced me to this website. she said it would help me improve my writing. =]

I found this site searching the web.

I have been writing for about 3 months and I surf the web for all my questions and answers.

Writing is something I have always wanted to do and couldn't find the time raising 4 boys.

The boys are grown and on there own, so here I am.

I am working on two wips right now.

I Love to read romantic suspense so I am writing in that genre.

I think about writing from the time I get up until I go to bed.

I am currently getting about 1500 words in a day, writing before and after work.

I am 60 percent done with one wip and 25 percent done with another.

I actually came across this site on Yahoo Answers. Another poster said that it was a good place to critique work of writers of all ages. I looked into it, decided to join, and was glad I did!

Hello Everyone,

I found this site simply by searching for freelance writing jobs. I look forward to learning and sharing information with everyone.

I think a blog I followed or some such mentioned it, and I bookmarked it to go back to later. I must've forgot about it because I was looking through my bookmarks a while ago and I found it again and I was like "Huh?".

I have been hanging at Writers.net but there are some noxious trolls there stinking the place up. Ann Crispin has mentioned this site so I thought I might check it out.

I just input NOVEL in google, then I find this website.

Googled!

How did I find this site? Well, I was looking around to see about obtaining and agent, found "Crane Literary Agency"...but the url to the website went to a strange place that made no sense, so I googled it and found a link to a post here... Clicked on it and decided I wanted to add to the thread, so I joined... Now I can't find the POST I wanted to reply to!
Actually, that's not true, I just got sidetracked reading the "welcome posts".

Well, I said it in my introduction thread, but I found out about this place by reading a book called The Street Smart Writer. I'd been reading that kind of book for a while and the website kept popping up in a bunch of the books - so I decided to poke my head in and see what was here. Wait - why is that ax hanging up there above me?

I wanted to used the lyrics to a song in my MS and needed information regarding that. I stumbled onto AW and have never looked back.

I found it on Wikipedia, one of my favorite reference sites!
