I have an idea, and if successful I'll make a group for it.
Okay, so if you have writer's block, or want to use a character from a dead story or want to develop a character this is the place for you. You see, I was thinking of making this land where all sorts of things happen and characters are being periodically dropped there. I hope this will stimulate imagination and create test situations for characters. I also have a bit of a solution for the story dying. There is a period delete in which almost everything is wiped out. This allowed people who want to return to come back and new people to come. I will periodically post topics about the story asking people to join. Any questions?

I like this idea, I have writers block all the time, and I delete stories just so I can think again. But then I want to show my friends what im up to and im kind of screwed so Yeah this would be a wonderful idea, how would one drop stories into it?

Oh no, you don't drop stories into it. It is suppose to help get ideas flowing. You're suppose to use characters from your stories.

Maybe it would be easier if you should read it. I started it and it died, but I bet I could start it up again.

About this group

Have a new story, poem, group, or other work that you'd like to tell us about? Here's your chance!

Since a number of our system groups seem to be full of "Read my stuff!" posts, it seemed à propos to create a group solely for that purpose. Yes, in this group, you can post links to your best stuff to your heart's content.

Looking for someone to read your work? Want to get some eyeballs on your pride and joy? This is the group for you. Tell us why we should read it, and make it interesting!

Of course, please try and keep the usual questions about how the site works in the New Members group, requests for collaborators in the Collaborative Corner group, and requests for reviews/critiques over in the Critiques Wanted group.

Other than that, just the usual warning against flaming and trolling (!). Nasty, mean, or obnoxious posts will be deleted without warning. :)

Have at it, and enjoy!
