This topic has been frozen by the moderator. No new comments can be posted.
If you want to post your writing, please review these rules:
- Only one piece of writing every three days. Once three days have passed since you last posted, you can share something else.
- Share your story through a link, not copy pasting. Posting a long story into a chat will slow everything down. If you use Google Docs, be sure to have the share settings as "Anyone on the internet with the link can view/comment." If you already posted this on the Goodreads Creative Writing section, give us the link to that page. If your story is on another platform, download it and the link paste it here. This will help everyone access your work.
- When asking people to edit (you are welcome to just let us read, and we can comment instead. It all depends on what you're comfortable with), please tell us what you want. Heavy edits? (grammar, line-by-line edits, along with big things like plot and flow) Light edits? (general comments about large issues) Or are you okay with anything? Please specify in your post, or we won't know what to give.
- If you want people to read your work, then you have to read other people's. Whenever you have time, read through some other stories. You don't have to spend hours on one post, but just give general feedback. It will help that person, and maybe afterward they'll read your work.
- When giving feedback: be nice. It's not hard. Find something you like about the story, then give suggestions. If you don't have anything good to say, then don't say it.
- Have fun! Reading other people's work is fun and inspiring. Don't be afraid to post your story. We'll read it, and tell you what we liked. If you have any questions, ask me in the Suggestions/Questions thread.
