Greetings Absolute Write forums. I've been lurking for about a week and I've been incredibly impressed with the helpful and friendly commentary throughout the forums. For a long time I've needed to get back into the writing community, but it's taken me a while to feel ready. This looks like a great place to delve back in, and I can't wait to contribute to the writing discussion and continue working on my craft.

Now, confession time. As you can probably see, I actually joined back in 2009, so I hope you can forgive me for reintroducing myself. I think I only stuck around for about a week before circumstances left me without a stable internet connection. I probably should have returned at first opportunity, but it took me this long to try again.

I'm happy to be back and I'm looking forward to getting to know the community.

Take some time and read the Newbie Guide and the Stickies found
at the top of Forum pages. They are your best guide to learning about
Absolute Write.

Don’t forget to read the FAQ regarding posting pictures at AW.


Members who want to start a thread in Share Your Work to have work critiqued need
50 posts. Don’t make a mad dash to reach your 50 posts. Take some time to greet fellow newbies,
critique other members’ works, or join a discussion.

Welcome to AW!

Please do what Reg suggests!

-and read about AW basics in the Newbie Guide! Many questions about using this software can be found in the FAQ's menu in the handy blue bar at the 'top' of this page. Also handy for first-time users is the common acronym list. This helps you identify those mystifying abbreviations.

The most helpful Novel thread in all of AW
: here.

*Critiques* New members often ask about having work critiqued! They should first read the 50 Post rule. But when it comes to actually posting writing in the Share Your Work (SYW) area, this thread addresses many first time questions, while this one covers most common problems. found in SYW posts. *Worth reading no matter how long you have been here!*

AW is a community built on the foundations of respecting your fellow writer and helping each other, it's the basic building blocks of how AW works.

Welcome to our community!
