Hi all,

New to the forums here and wanted to say hello to everyone. Had been writing a blog until I decided that there ought to be a more social, integrated way to share writing online. That lead me to create insightoutpost.com, which is kind of like YouTube for writing or Digg meets Blogger. The focus is on humor initially but we're hoping to expand beyond that if there's demand.

Anyway, I'm just here to learn more about the writing community. Thanks for having me!

Mike

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, 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.

Greetings and welcome to the watercooler :welcome:

Take a wander around the various forums, there's lots to see and lots to learn, and even some fun threads too. Come along and pop on over to the Traditional Irish Pub (at the top of the Newbie forum) and say hi, there's plenty of friendly faces that you can chat with and lots of banter. There's also the Question of the Day threads at the top of the Newbie forum where you can answer random questions.

Don't forget to read the newbie guide, and if you want to know what all the buttons mean check out this thread.

Welcome, Mike! I'm new, too, and hope your time here goes well for you.

Aloha, Mike. Do you live in Hawaii, or just familiar with the culture? I live in Ohio now, but I used to live on Oahu. :)

Welcome to the forums! I know how the blog thing is--I actually gave up on mine, since it was a tad too solitary. Plus I felt like a poser, lol.

There are lots of great people here, especially people at different stages in their writing careers. Always stuff to learn, good people to keep you motivated, and just some general good fun. I hope you enjoy your stay.

A hui hou. :)

Usually, after Thanksgiving dinner and again after Christmas dinner, I run out to the back yard and just scream. LOL!
