Salutations

Welcome! I, for one, am delighted to have a young writer here. What do you like to write?

Do we really have to call you Username Required?
 
Hello and welcome, please make yourself at home. You've come to the right place for encouragement and support.

See you in the forums!
 
I have a granddaughter who is 16. who is an aspiring writer. I encourage her to write what she knows, write what she feels. You will never be in a place again where you can write as a 15 year old with more clarity than you will ever be able to now. I still have the journals that my wife and I both kept from when we were 16 and 17 years old. A box full of old love letters that could never ever be duplicated by someone who was older. Write what you know, it will always be good because it will be honest. Keep hard copies of what you write. Technology changes so fast.

I like to write horror a lot, but mainly I write psychological short stories, and general stories with a message. Every story I make always has an important message to it lol.

You could just call me Username, one day I'll give myself an alias. :)

Heck yeah man! I'll start considering writing on paper first. :)

It might sound funny to you, but we used to back up our documents on a floppy disc. You can't find anything today that can read a floppy disc. Then it was a memory card, I don't have anything today that will read a memory card. You used to be able to always go back to a writing site like this one and find copies of your old stories. The old website is gone. Today I guess you can rely on the cloud. I bet in another 5 years something will have replaced that. If you have them copied and printed, put in a binder, there will at least be a binder that when you're a famous writer one day; someone will find them and sell all your stories from your youth, before you were famous.

it could happen :}
