    Does This Count?

    I have written one and a half short stories. I am currently in the middle of writing my second. If i havent written a book, can i still be in this group? All of you sound like amazing writers, but i feel out of place.

    Once upon a time ----- we were all beginners :-D

    Shelfari is primarily a readers site, or maybe I should say a site for people interested in books.
    This particular group and a few others tend to focus more on writing.

    Anyone can join - welcome aboard!

    Hey, I feel kind of unworthy to be a writer, especially after reading some great book written by some great writer - or in my case, two authors (I'm looking forward next May). Anyway, by reading other people's works, whether they are good or bad, I think they can give me a lesson or two about writing a better piece.

    Happy Writing!

    Hi Colorado,

    I don't know who sets the rules, but we're all writers here! A lot are unpublished, some published. I'm one of the published ones and I give as much advice to aspiring writers as I can on here about writing and the industry.

    I think as long as you write and read you can join in.

    Best Wishes!

    I've only written one short story and I'm here, so you deserve to be here. This group is a little intimidating, though, what with such accomplished writers - I guess all newbies are feeling out of place.
