2)Probably in wherever people are offering help on ideas.
3)The ability to actually write something without huge gaping plotholes.
4)Um....yeah, not so much...

1) What experience do you have as a writer and as a literature critique?
I've always loved writing. I started writing when I was in 8th grade. It's been five years now and I think I've gotten better at it but it always helps to have someone outside your group of friends to crit your stuff. I never minded harsh crit. I enjoy it actually. It just means someone wants me to do better with my writing. I'm glad they read it too. Also I'm horrible at grammar so it's good when someone tells to correct something.
2) What part of the guild interests you most? Where do you think you'll be spending most of your time here?
Mostly the original stories forum but I like to read other stuff as well. I love poetry though I can't write it worth crap. lol Just don't have the nack for it i guess.
3) What do you want to do with the skills you get from this guild?
I hope to become a better writer and that my grammar gets better. Mostly I want to write and even help others with the stuff I learn.
4) Anything else you want us to know?
I'm very motherly towards all so if I call you honey or sweetie, please don't take offense. I never say anything bad about another person's writing, I try not to sound mean when I crit. Oh and I get excited when I read a really good story so expect the "I simply love it" statement but good crit always follows.

2) Either brain-storming or taking a class.
3) Write a well-thought-out fiction/RP.
4) Feel free to PM me about collaborations or anything. :3

1) What experience do you have as a writer and as a literature critique? (unofficial stuff on the side like hobbies counts too. Don't be afraid to say you're just getting interested in writing if that is the case.)
As a writer, I suppose I've been writing for 6 years now, it's actually been a very long time. I used to be a mental (in my head) song writer, then I started writing them down. Eventually that led to me becoming a poetry fanatic and I wrote silly poems for my class journals in grade school. In 6th grade, I found some amazing friends who began to evolve with me into my story writing. I had just moved from my hometown into a new school so writing had been a quiet outlet. Then when Harry Potter came out, EVERYTHING started. I became an extremely intimate writer. But nowadays I have hardly any time to write because sports, and school, and friends. So yeah I play softball and I love to have fun too. But critique is hard for me, because I either love it!, or I absolutely despise it.
2) What part of the guild interests you the most? Where do you think you'll be spending most of your time here?
The fizzles, and the feedback parts of the guild are extremely exciting looking. Most of my time will be in the Fizzles because those tiny ideas will eventually get me inspired to write a book...I just know it!
3) What do you want to do with the skills you get from this guild?
I want to basically just write short novels, and hopefully one day get published. I'd also like to learn how to stick with a subject and eventually finish a few projects. I want to learn to have the Stick-To-It attitude.
4) Anything else you want us to know about you?
I'm just now thirteen, yeah I was on here when I was 11, I wasn't supposed to but you know the pasts the past. I enjoy helping people, I'm going into 9th grade next year. I have a habit of calling elementary schools (k-5/6) Grade school. I am living in the middle of the east side of the US...and that's all really, plus I've got to extremely rabid siblings. (They aren't really rabid but they act like Hammy from Over the Hedge (MOVIE) )

1) What experience do you have as a writer and as a literature critique? (unofficial stuff on the side like hobbies counts too. Don't be afraid to say you're just getting interested in writing if that is the case.)
I like to write. I write mainly fiction, but I write poetry sometimes. I am a fiction editor for Mandala Journal, a literary journal at my college. I have written for the Red and Black, which is a newspaper at my college. I just changed my major to English because I want to improve my writing.
2) What part of the guild interests you the most? Where do you think you'll be spending most of your time here?
Original stories.
3) What do you want to do with the skills you get from this guild?
If I end up being able to commit enough time to this guild, I will use the skills (if I learn any) to improve my writing.
4) Anything else you want us to know about you?
I'm trying to write a book that I may or may not post on here. The college I go to is the University of Georgia. I don't like football. I'm supposed to be studying for my Spanish exam in 2 days. I can't think of anything else in my current state of sleep deprivation...

1) What experience do you have as a writer and as a literature critique?
Writing is one of my hobbies and the biggest motivation of my writing is preparing for a story of my manga. I have written a lot of stories as I wanna become a famous mangaka. However, my mother - who is an artist told me that I'm not suitable for this job because mangaka is something too far in my country. So... the stories are still there, and those manga are not finished. That is how writing stories become one of my interest, I think :]
2) What part of the guild interests you the most? Where do you think you'll be spending most of your time here?
I'm not a native speaker so I think I will learn more from you guyz, who might help me indirectly with your words. So everything in this guild interests me.
3) What do you want to do with the skills you get from this guild?
Writing a story properly in English :]
4) Anything else you want us to know about you?
I'm a sophomore in University so free time is something too expensive for me. Hope that I could have an interesting time here. Thanks for everything
Additional information: "Thank you" is my most frequent word when saying something.

I'm not sure if I have introduced myself already, but then I doubt anyone's checking razz
1. What experience do you have as a writer and as a literature critic?
Well I'm currently enrolled in SOA, School of Arts, for print media(hurrah!). So, I'd say I'm quite experienced in the writing field. I've been writing pretty much since I could read, when I was about 4. I read from a rather eclectic collection of genres, never really sticking to a single genre. Some of my favorite authors are Roald Dahl, Maya Angelou, J.K. Rowling (seriously, who doesn't love Harry Potter? biggrin ), Jane Austen, Charlotte Bronte, Albert Camus, etc, etc.
2. What part of the guild interests you the most?
Original stories of course! biggrin It seems to be the norm on this thread and I do like to read truly original stories.
3. What can you do with the skills you get from this guild?
Obtain another perspective of writing, as it applies to an online community, rather than to a school setting.
4. Anything else you want us to know?
Not really C: I'm open for discussion, critique and whatever else could possibly be on these forums biggrin

1) What experience do you have as a writer and as a literature critique?
Well, I have very little experience as writer, because I only started getting really interested in writing a year (or so) ago, I started toying with the idea of writing years before that, but a comment by a classmate made me think of actually writing down my story ideas. With critiquing, I've only critiqued as peer review in school, so don't expect a lot of my critiquing.
2) What part of the guild interests you the most? Where do you think you'll be spending most of your time here?
What interests me about this guild is the fact that I can develop my (almost) nonexistent writing skills. I think I might spend the most time reading stories in the original thoughts & stories, and fan-fiction sections, since I love reading.
3) What do you want to do with the skills you get from this guild?
With the skills I'll get from this guild I want to write my stories and share them, and maybe get them published.
4) Anything else you want us to know about you?
Well, that my main hobby is reading, which I did (and still do) before toying with the idea of writing. I'm open to critiques (as long as they're gentle!), and do expect me to be really polite (and almost nonexistent at first) here, 'cause I'm shy.

1) What experience do you have as a writer and as a literature critique? (unofficial stuff on the side like hobbies counts too. Don't be afraid to say you're just getting interested in writing if that is the case.)
I have been "technically" writing since I was five years old (I used to tell my parents stories and have them write them down in small journals). Although I don't have any professional experience, I took a Creative Writing course last year where I learned a great deal. I admit that a great deal of the things that I write need to be critiqued, but hopefully I can put some valuable insight on other stories as well without seeming like a hypocrite xD
2) What part of the guild interests you the most? Where do you think you'll be spending most of your time here?
Probably the submission of stories section, or the classroom section. However, I'm sure there is plenty more for me to explore ^^
3) What do you want to do with the skills you get from this guild? I want to help improve my writing, and find my inner voice. Sometimes when I write I feel as though I am sort of in a haze, and I dont fully think things through. The stories usually turn out fine, but I want to be more precise in my stories with less mistakes.
4) Anything else you want us to know about you?
I just recently turned 16, so please don't go fully hard critique wise on me as I have yet to attend college or take any professional courses xD I live in a small town, and attend a very small school which I feel isn't giving me the education I deserve. My writing, to me, seems to lack the maturity a lot of other 16 year old writers possess for that reason. I am hoping to nurse my writing ability up to standards for my age group, and hopefully with this guild's help I can improve. ^^
