Summer is here and we're back in session, I guess! Sorry about just before, technical difficulties with the site that i didn't even know about until recently kept us from doing our stuff.

But now...NOW! It's summer. And that means *sinister voice* that you all have NO EXCUSE not to write or read or review. Capiche?

Mwahahaha!

10: 7/21/07  The first chapter of first-time submitter Lydia's novel is now available on the side bar. I apologize for not posting it sooner but I was really tired last night and my review would've been something like, "Pwah fah bah booboo..."

05: 7/15/07  I posted an excerpt from the full-length story I've been working on,m if anyone's interested. Looking for feedback, before I get so deep into the story that it'll be hard to change anything without changing the whole thing. You know how it is.

04: 7/07/07 (Jackpot!) A new story by Tiffaberry, another first-time submitter, is available on the sidebar. And don't forget to review it and post! This is a posting site, and I'm sick of being the only poster. For real.

01: 6/27/07   I put a suggestion box in the Comments Forum for, you know, suggestions. Anything to help our fledgling site take wing!

Evening, all!

This site is about writers, and the stuff they write. What're they called. Stories, yes, that's the one.

I feel that young writers don't get enough attention; the world of publications is kinda cruel, y'know? It's hard to be published, and, failing that, it's hard for an unknown writer to receive the attention and criticism they need to achieve betterment. Thats what this site is about.

If you're an unpublished young writer, then send your short stories or single chapters of long stories in to the site, and I'll post them. Also, anyone who wants to post a criticism can do so, but no profanity or generally nasty remarks; back your concerns up with details and reasoning. If you do not...well, I'll just have to take you off, is all.

Cheerio!

Adam
