About This Newsletter

Welcome to this issue of the Noticing Newbies Newsletter.

I thought I would give more information on things to check out that you may enjoy and maybe help you get involved with places and also places that are just for newbies and more.

This newsletter is about and for you. And for seasoned members too, I hope you'll find something you can take from my ramblings and the links that I share.


This newsletter's goal is to showcase our Newbies here at WDC in a wide range of different
kinds of items to enjoy and give the Newbies some tools and items to help them along the way, as well as other places for them to check out and maybe join in or just explore.


Letter from the editor

Hello! How are you? I'm so glad you're here. *Smile*

I would like to welcome all Newbies to our wonderful community of WDC and this newsletter.

I hope that you will enjoy yourself and write your hearts out too. I have been here at WDC for many years now and it really is my second home. There are a lot more goodies here now than when I first came here, don't get me wrong there were good goodies when I came along too, I just mean that there are a lot more goodies now and every year in September there are more goodies added as we celebrate WDC Birthday, Isn't that wonderful? This is the best community around.

This newsletter is about and for you. And for seasoned members, I hope you'll find something you can take from my ramblings.


Be sure to check out The The StoryMaster Author Icon, The The StoryMistress Author Icon, and Writing.Com Support Author Icon to learn even more about this site and find even more goodies.

Be sure to check out your left and right sidebars and just take your time, have fun with these wonderful places you can look into

Also, don't forget to check out the top you will see Get Started and more, and then not too far down from that you will see Portfolio, Reviews, Biography, Notebook, Blog, Community, and then an arrow which is where you will keep your fans and see who fans you.
And then under that is where you will see Create Item, Folders, Stats & Info, and Recycling Bin.
