Well hello there. This will be my second experience with a forum. Hopefully it won't be as bad as my first. People seem to take some things a bit too seriously and are quick to condemn. Doesn't anyone believe in forgiveness anymore? Found out some things I won't be doing anymore.

Enough about past misdeeds, misgivings and misunderstandings. I am an author wanting to break out into the erotic fantasy. I'm not sure if this is one of the forums I can promote myself so I will wait for feedback. I am a Bahamian author with flair for the bizarre erotic fantasy adventure. Found out that the sources I was using aren't that reputable so for future projects I hope to get your opinions on how I should proceed.

Thanks for lending me your ears and I am sure that things will go smoothly from here on out.

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. After you post 50 posts you can use the SYW areas to get help there. The password for some of the areas is…..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.

Hello and welcome. I'm sorry about your past bad experience. People here are really supportive and helpful, assuming you're not a total troll. The mods strictly enforce politeness even when people strongly disagree, even if you do or say controversial things.... Apart from trolling or spamming, I mean. That they have no patience for.

It's going to take 50 posts before you can share your writing for critiques, so I'd suggest poking around the different boards, getting acquainted.

Good luck!

This is a wonderful forum, I think you will like it here.
I haven't been here that long but I've learned so much already and know if I need an answer I will find it here.
Welcome!

Welcome aboard! People around here are pretty level headed and easy-going, so I don't think you'll have to worry about people being quick to condemn you on anything. You'll certainly get straightforward advice and constructive criticism, which can sting at times, but it's all given with the best of intentions. If that's what you're looking for, you've come to the right place! Again, welcome!

Hey, you can make whisky from corn mash, so mash away! :evil

Erotic fantasy is cool. In fact, I had several of those today. :rolleyes

Good luck! I hope you find success!

Welcome! Sorry you had a bad experience, but there are always a few bad eggs. Here it seems mods make sure the rotten ones are tossed before damage can be done. :)

Looking forward to seeing you around!

welcome to AW. I have posted my chapters on many sites and found vastly differing views...

Welcome! I've found that anyone who follows this golden rule seems to do just fine: "respect your fellow writers"
