Yes, a truly British website deserves its own 'thank-you' forum where members can be polite to each other over a cup of tea and scones. We'd like to thank members for being so constructive in their reviews and helping others develop their writing. If you'd like like to thank someone, here's the place to do it ..

Hi clare,
Thankyou very much for your review, and I will take on board your valued advice.
I thank you also for pointing out that the word 'crimpled' probably isn't in a dictionary, it's just something that my little sister said to an elderly aunt when she was two and it sticks.
thanks again clare
p.s. I'm new to all this, only joinend this week. lol but it seems okish

Hi Daisy D
Welcome to the site. Thanks for uploading your chapters, I think Roald Dahl also invented a word or two in his time so I think you're fine there.
Any queries, please let us know.
Ted

I like the word 'crimpled'. Didn't Shakespeare make up half the the words he used? If your readers know what it means, hey leave it in. I turn verbify nouns all the time.

Hi Lorrie, Ive not read any Shakespeare...only a couple of sonnets. But thankyou for that. P.S I loved Snagglefoot, I did review it about 2 days ago, but it's not showing on your site? only on my books reviewed- don't know why? Do u?

It has four and a bit chapters - Bless - It'll be needing long trousers soon. Lorrie

Dear Megs - thank you very much for your "A Dangerous Man" review - your comments were much appreciated. And, ooh yes, I do see what you mean about the tenses/repetition issues - I'll have to try to puzzle them out myself! Typical me - overegging the pudding again ... Many thanks A xxx

Can't help but notice this particular forum being taken over with moans rather than thanks. In particular, the most recent two posts are there just to make a point about poor reviews. If this is such a 'must have' could there be a 'have a general bitch about a poor review and let off steam' category?
"Suck it up, say thank you and move on."

Now that I've started to visit this site, maybe I'll visit more often in future.

Thanks JimRHixson for your review of Warrior: Path of Destiny. Glad you liked it. To answer your question: No, its all made up. Everything after the warrior trainig is accurate, but I imagined the warrior training and most of the people, except Temujin and Begter, who were real.

For some reason I can't seem to start a new post at the moment on my computer. I'd just like to say thank you everyone who has kindly reviewed my work in the past. Now I know this message board is here I will be able to thank you all in person in the future!
I just wanted to also thank YWO for the whole experience. I am one of the dreaded newbies and the most frightening thing about this site was actually reviewing other people's work. I was scared I'd say the wrong things or miss things in peoples' work that were so obvious they would think I'm stupid. I'm now really enjoying reading other peoples' work and hope that my own writing will improve as a result - and I honestly think that I'm learning from reviewing other work as well - what a brilliant site!

Thank you very much
