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

Like has been said... you'll largely be ignored. Do n't get down about it. Write for yourself and take what you can get. 
 
 I've only been posting a bit over a week. I usually answer several prompts a day. I've barely seen anything in the way of constructive criticism. 
 
 One OP just gave me a one-word `` Meh'' ( Actual quote ) for my response. 
 
 One response got a load more votes than I expected. 
 
 My only request for [ CC ] got downvoted. 
 
 Most of my posts get a couple of upvotes and/or a response or two. 
 
 This is all gravy to me. Even if no one says anything, I only have one or two posts with no tangible evidence of being read. 
 
 I write for myself, but I want others to enjoy too. 
 
 You will often get that here even if they remain quiet. Just find something inspiring to you and post. 
 
 Worst that can happen really is a downvote. Read: `` Does n't matter, had reader.'' 
 
 And if you find you have an idea and nowhere to go with it... post a prompt yourself and let us take a whack at it. 
 
 So start writing. You might be largely ignored... but if you do n't write then no one will ever notice and you ca n't improve.
