Welcome to the...
Y-City Writers
Website and Forum
...we have ways of making you write!
There is an old saying that everyone has a great story in them...It's our belief that everyone probably has a lot more stories than that, and that all of those stories are jostling for position, anxious to see the world beyond the author's mind. Y-City Writers Page was created by a Zanesville, Ohio, Writers Group as a free website dedicated to encouraging and improving our writing experience with challenges, news of writers conferences and writing events, our favorite writing links and so much more. We have only one hard and fast rule here -- GET SOMETHING DOWN. Feel free to sharpen your pencils, uncap your pens, dust off that old keyboard, and join us. All tale-spinners and word-stringers are welcome here

*Please consider that some publishers may consider you a published author if you post your work on this site, and that it might affect your options in regard to certain contests or submission requests where a publisher is seeking UNPUBLISHED AUTHORS or UNPUBLISHED WORK. You may wish to post only items here that you do not intend to publish elsewhere, but that is entirely up to you. When in doubt, please check with your intended publisher prior to any submission to that publisher.
