Hello, I'm your friendly local <./>ACE</.> (Which stands for assistant community editor) the welcoming commitee for h2g2 . So, <./>Welcome</.>!
I'm a real person, not a machine, so I can help you and if you find that you have a question. For instance, if you want to know what to do with a piece of writing you've just cooked up, I'd be happy to help you with that. No question is too big or too small.
There are lots of things to do on h2g2. Try clicking on some of the links below to find your way around .
- If you want to join one of the many many clubs or societies here, you can find them here - A660340
- Some of the slang thrown around the forums of this site can be rather confusing, but it's all defined at A660340
- If you need a general introduction, you can find it at <./>Dontpanic-tour</.> and A719840
- Browse the Edited Guide at <./>C889</.>. The Edited Guide is for non-fiction entries, which must fit into the Writing-Guidelines. That isn't to say they're boring though. There's a lot of humor in them and many of the entries are very interesting. Newer entries can be found on the </>FrontPage</.> and at the <./>month</.> page.
- - If you want to help further our dream of a strong, interesting Guide by writing such an entry, please read over the Writing-Guidelines. When you're ready to submit an entry, let me know and I'll help you to the best of my abilities.
- If fiction or general creative writing are your field, then you'll find yourself at home at the h2g2 Alternative Writing Workshop - <./>RF5</.>. The h2g2 <./>UnderGuide</.> and other group collect quality entries from there to show them to the world.
- Another good place for the reading and writing of creative works is <./>ThePost</.>
- If you've come to h2g2 because of the new Hitchhiker's movie, some entries that may interest you are A943184, A550955 and A2642384
If you have any questions, just click 'Reply' and I'll do my best to help you I'm fairly experienced around these parts, so there's a pretty good chance that I will at least be able to answer a question or ask someone 'in the know'. I hope, anyway.
Lastly, remember that the most important thing is to enjoy yourself.

Are your works fiction? (I'd look myself but I'm having some server problems right this moment) If they are, you may want to try submitting them to the Alternative Writing Workshop - <./>RF5</.>. h2g2's community newspaper, <./>ThePost</.> also publishes stuff like that.
I could help you with those things if you're interested. I know the Editors of the Post, and I'm one of the AWW's editors (well, something like that). If you're really interested in improving your style, the best place is <./>RF5</.> because you'll get some feedback.

I'll try. I'm not very smart though.
You may need to be patient with the AWW. Sometimes it's very active and sometimes it reaches lulls. This is a lull period, I'd say. It'll pick up.

"The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is a wholly remarkable book. It has been compiled and recompiled many times and under many different editorships. It contains contributions from countless numbers of travellers and researchers."
