Greetings word-mongers!

A long time writer and forum user (not here though) I hope to be at least as helpful as I am sarcastic. Make some friends, read some words, get some advice: sounds like a good place to be.

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.

Hiya. I think I may have tipped the balance wrong on the helpful:sarcastic ratio. Oopsie!

Maryn, pleased to meet you

Thank you everyone! I feel all warm and fuzzy, but that might be the blanket.

Maryn, sarcasm>help is an easy (tempting) "mistake" to make.

Double thanks everyone! Kinda excited more people say welcome even after I say thank you. Delighted to join such an active community.

Thanks to you mods for the helpful advice (form post, sure, but useful)!


CACTUSWENDY, I prefer airpopped err...popcorn, with a spritz of olive oil and some fine ground sea salt. Makes me sound a little pretentious, but it remains true.

For a second, I was afraid the fairy was Mab, and was therefore slightly (mostly) terrified. Good to know it was friendly.
