I don't make boards or have any say in the matter of making boards. None of the mods do which goes against everything people will tell you.

I'm not sure if Don said this or if I read it somewhere else so don't quote me too harshly here but I believe the more boards we have the slower the board loads.

Can you use the "collaborative effort" board and see if it goes anywhere?

The general idea of that board was creating a short story and others add on but it can always be redefined like other boards have.

Quoted from Wesley Moon Can you use the "collaborative effort" board and see if it goes anywhere?

Now that is a good idea. I'll jump over there and give it a try. Thanx for your help bud!

Quoted from Death Monkey The site has a music forum? I would argue short prose is a bit closer to our craft than music, but what do I know... We are writers, aren't we? We discuss poetry? But not Short prose?

Logic and reason?!  Shakes head, laughs. You must've gotten into a lot of trouble as a kid!

Moving along:

Electricsatori,

I think it's an excellent idea, in theory, but this is a place where readers complain if a bock of text exceeds four lines. We want quick, easy reads. Nothing too complicated. That said, I question how many of us would participate. Still, I'm a believer in the free market. So I say, let the market decide. Give it a shot.

PS ... Whatever you do, don't submit anything that is "dystopian." Lest it not get read-- damn big words!

I work on a very good site that showcases short stories, novels, music and even screenplays.  Writing.com is a very good site, I highly recommend it for someone who whats to post and discuss short stories.  Marvin.
