| Today I discovered an email inviting me to this site. It was great timing actually seeing as how the forum I used to visit is now largely inactive.
All the activity on the message boards is definitely encouraging. I can't wait to read the stories.
I write stories from time to time when my schedule allows it, but for the most part I'm an avid critiquer. I am always trying to improve my skills in editing and hope that those skills may lead to something outside of my current track in life.
I really don't critique poetry, but I enjoy reading it none the less.

| Hi NY! Welcome to Scribbles, we are so happy to see so many new faces around here.
Although the site is still new what I love most about it, is its diversity. We have many different perspectives floating around and that makes for great debate and critiques. Again welcome to Scribbles, and start posting! | |

| Wow, this is a great turnout considering how long this site has been up. My compliments to the recruiters. I'd have to agree, Kellycakes, the diversity of the writers and of the forums is really encouraging. I've had the opportunity to read a few posts and I'm far from disappointed. The feedback from the Scribble community is really what sealed the deal as far as joining the site. | |

| Well, I'm far from perfect, but I hope my two cents helps folks go in the direction they are looking for. I think critiquing as an editor is well...an editor's job. I like to critique as a reader, someone who doesn't tell writers how to write, but rather someone tells writers what I like to read.
Oh, thanks Bick. You're avatar is cute, too! I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me but I realized it blinks. | |
