[ OT ] Is /r/WritingPrompts accepting of new writers ?

You have gotten some great answers here, and I'm going to be brutally honest. 
 
 This place is super accepting, I have never seen anyone run off. 
 
 Now will people actually read your stuff? Do n't get your hopes ups. If you are lucky, the prompt writer will read your story and comment on it ( I always try to at least thank the writer for his work ), some do.....but a lot do n't. If you happen to end up in a super popular prompt you may get a few reads. On these smaller posts you are basically writing for the prompt guy and, if you are lucky, a couple other writer that answered the prompt. 
 
 If you are looking for constructive criticism, good luck. Most [ CC ] posts here get ignored. Hell I am even guilty of that. There is some great advice around here. There a few, more experienced writers, that if you catch them when they have some time, will tear your shit up ( in a good way ). They will tell you what is wrong and what is right. There is just not that many of them and catching them is more just luck than anything else. 
 
 Now with that out of the way, there are some great writers buried in these posts. I can not count how many times I find a well written story hidden in a three upvote prompt. 
 
 Welcome. I hope we get to read some of your stuff soon.
