Welcome aboard finger0126 and Greg.
This site is great if you use it correctly.
Have thick skin. People will make comments about your work that you might not appreciate, so keep what makes sense. But remember that you have to like your story at the end of the day. That was some advice given to me.
Do the contests. They're great.
Put info into your Profile. I want to know what your genre is and if you have a tech background or history or whatever.
I like pen names.
Again, welcome aboard

Hi Zealous. Welcome to the site. I do a bit of volunteer user support to try to get new members up to speed quickly. Be sure to check out a post in the Premium forum on tips to maximize the numbers you'll receive on the site. It's pinned near the top of the forum, so you can't miss it.
I'm just heading out for a medical appointment, but I'll try to give you further details before the end of the day. I'll send you a connection request in the meantime, so we can communicate using the messaging system.

Welcome to the site. Definitely, fill out your profile info. I want to know what kind of genre you like. Also, start posting if you can or start reading to see if there are others with your interests.

FYI, this newest member is impersonating the real Suzanne Redfearn (including the fake picture), a very successful author. I've asked her to remove the impersonating info, otherwise we'll close the account. Oddly enough, we just had another imposter try the same thing a few days ago with another well-known author whose books are being adapted for Netflix. I suspect it's the same person. If the imposter put as much effort into writing as they do impersonating others, they might one day produce something worth reading.
