About
Welcome to the 'Stories' Board! Here you can let your creativity soar! Any genre or ideas can go in this. You can write short stories or continue where you left off whenever you have the inspiration to do so, writing chapter by chapter until you feel your story is complete! Keep the in mind the General Rules. Nothing inappropriate or offending whether it is intentional or not!
Chapter Based Stories
In this board you CANNOT post in anyone else's thread. Please don't give criticism -constructive or not- unless specifically asked. If you want to ask others about adding to your story or how you are doing insert an author's note! You can tell us what inspired your story or you can ask for ideas to add to or change up your story! If the author is accepting criticism or ideas, send them a private message. When PMing someone keep in mind that you are adding to THEIR story and you may or may not receive credit for ideas but ask the author and I'm sure they will be willing to mention your name in an author's note. Authors, don't be jerks about crediting. If someone asks for it (or even if they don't ask) and they are helping you out the least you could do is give them the credit they deserve!
Changing Your Mind - Collaboration
If you decide to continue your work with someone else you may ask a mod or myself to move a thread for you to the 'Collaboration Projects' board but until we do only the original author may continue with the story!
"One Shot" Stories
"One shots" are stories that you won't be continuing. You post one short story and move on. These are fine but don't forget that NO ONE else may post in the thread, only yourself MEANING that if you want others to give you any constructive criticism, they must do so through the PMs (Private Messages). If you'd rather not have your inbox cluttered but still want criticism or ideas, I'd suggest posting your one shot in the 'My Work' board under the 'Reviews' category. There others can read your story and they can post their ideas. One shots MUST be all in one thread. We don't want hundreds of one shot threads!
Collections
Lastly, you can create a collection of short stories or one shots. It is highly suggested to create a new thread for your long term stories but you can keep a collection of short stories in one thread. Reminder: ALL one shots MUST be in one thread!
**Read the General Rules sticky located in the 'Site Rules' board before
posting or creating a new thread!
This is a requirement! Also check the 'Site Rules' board frequently for updates and announcements!
