I am enjoying the hot weather in Texas. I have written a few new poems recently. Please help me navigate this site again and learn and write more. Thanks, Sheri (Beautiful Flower) |
| Hi it's Sheri. I have been away a long time due to personal reasons. I am back and would like to start participating more. I have written a few new poems. Still trying to get going on my poetry book and get it published. I have recently had to move several times in the last year. I am living in a tiny home now but it has free internet. I really hope to spend more time here and get to know everyone again. |

| Hi, it's Sheri 2023 child of God, Sorry, I have not been here in a while. I have been working on my poetry. I am getting Married on December 16, 2023. So I have been very busy. I would like any help I can get with the writing.com I not sure how to do things here. i am still new to figuring things out. Have a blessed night, Sheri |
Welcome back! Congratulations on getting married! I hope you have a long and happy union!  As for how to do things on here, I'll explain a couple of basics. You should regularly hop on the Community Newsfeed. If you click Newsfeed, on the left, it takes you to your Personal Newsfeed. There, you will only see notes from WdC and from people whose plus you have clicked once or (preferably) twice. There are so many more people and activities out there! At the top of your Personal Newsfeed, you'll see "View the Community Newsfeed." Click that to see what everyone else is posting. Is it always exciting? No. But if you don't check it regularly, you'll miss out when it is.  Scroll, Like, comment, and start making friends on the Community Newsfeed. When you meet a person you want to keep up with, double click their plus sign. If you single click it, it sets them as a favorite and you see a finger with the string, but this is private and they don't know you wanted to follow them. If you double click, you see the megaphone and you've become a fan. When you fan them, they are notified (which is why double clicking is better). Some of us (like myself) reward our new fans (and all fans from time to time). But if I'm not notified that you're following me, I can't reward you, thus double clicking to the megaphone is best.  Here's the plus I'm talking about. No obligation to double click it, though you are welcome to, of course.  But I'm doing this to show you. Schnujo's having school probs   If you find a thing you want to keep up with--blog, contest, challenge, etc., you can't double click the plus in the bitem (big item) link as below.
Double clicking that plus would fan me, not my challenge. To fan my challenge (again, no obligation, but I accidentally fanned a bunch of people as a newbie because I didn't know what I was doing ), you click the link and go to the challenge. Then in the upper right corner, double click that plus. Don't double click the plus by the person's name under the title, unless you also want to fan them. But to only fan the item, double click the plus in the upper right corner of the item. It will appear on your Favorites list on the right side anytime it's updated and you'll be able to search it in your Favorites list. The same goes for single clicking, but again, some folks, like me, reward their fans, so double clicking is best. |
| I'll explain tagging people and items, then that's really all the basics you need to know to enjoy the site, IMO. To tag a person, there are 3 common ways--user, suser, and huser. Which to choose is mostly personal preference, but if you want folks to email or fan someone, for example, you should use user to make it easier for others. I've demonstrated enough with myself, so I'll use kimauge. I hope they don't mind. I just realized, I don't know if they are a guy or girl. I assumed they were a guy, but maybe not.  Anyway, to do any ML code here, you need the curly braces found above the square brackets on your keyboard. Also, don't use spaces in the code, not even after the colon. ML code uses no spaces. Finally, you need their username. The username is how we log on here. The handle is what you see. In my case, my handle is currently "Schnujo's Veiled Evil." (Though it's normally just Schnujo. I changed it for the scary season. lol) To find out a person's username, you mouse over their handle and their username (and the date they joined) is revealed. You use their username to tag them. In the case of kimauge, they currently have the same username and handle. But it can be easily changed by clicking My Account on the left, then Change Handle. Here's the 3 most common ways to tag folks. {user:kimauge} = kimauge  {suser:kimauge} = kimauge {huser:kimauge} = kimauge If a person has an Upgraded membership or higher, they are in bold like me. Schnujo's having school probs. To tag an item, there are 2 common ways--item and bitem (big item). You need the 7-digit number between the title and the handle. I'll demonstrate using my reviewing raffle. It's closed, but there are 2 good dropnotes on there to help you learn more about reviewing and how to earn more GPs when you review. I encourage you to take a look. {item:2256964} = "WdC 2023 Birthday Review Raffle - CLOSED" {bitem:2256964} 
To me, this is mostly what you need to know to get started. Though kimauge is a newbie, so they may have a different opinion. I encourage you to keep these 2 notes in your email to refer back to them until you're comfortable with the info. Remember to check the Community Newsfeed regularly, preferably daily. Welcome! |
| Hi Everyone. Sorry I have not been very active on writing.com because I have moved about six times in the last year waiting my disability to be approved and working odd jobs just to have a little bit to live on. I plan to participate more on writing.com now that I will have some time. My disability was approved a week ago. |
| Hi Everyone, It has been a couple of rough days. My friend Regina's mother passed away. My friend Troy's dad passed away. I have also been looking for a new place and helping a friend move. Sheri |
| Sheri child of God Hello everyone! I just moved in with a friend. It's a temporary move until I find my own place again. I am still working on my poetry book with Sharmelle. I am working parttime with a couple on hospice. I am waiting on my social security disability to be approved. I have a new guy friend in my life named Troy, He is a very sweet man. I don't have a car right now but am looking forward to hopefully getting one soon. It's very hard to get around Houston, Texas without a car, |
| Sheri- Welcoming 2023 Sorry I have not participated much on WdC this past year. I have been struggling with health issues and my living situation. I am in the process of moving once again but as soon as I am settled in a new place I plan to be online more often. Thank you for everyone that sent me cards last year, they meant a lot to me the cards of love. |
