Hi Carrie – I understand what you said above about being “a little nervous” 🙂 Now I study handwriting, so I volunteered for the Voice.club to write these Haiku. I also get a bit nervous trying to scribe using a “digital pen”, but as Eric said, we are a family friendly club among friends.

Why do my friends need to SignIn to read the post I shared?

Actually, this is a voting security feature. During public voting, only club members can read posts submitted for that contest. Since anyone reading the story is able to vote (click the Like button), we reserve these capabilities to members who SignIn. Before we implemented this security feature, people were voting multiple times and making the public voting process unfair and out of balance. To fix this, our staff finally decided to allow only members who SignIn to read the stories. Membership is free and easy, and ensures our club is safe, secure, and family-friendly!
