The Writer's Cafe discussion

If you want to request a new genre of stories/just another random folder, this is your place.

Can I plz have a folder for my writing? :)

GAB wrote: "Can I plz have a folder for my writing? :)"

Well, basically what we do is go to the folder genre you want to write, like "Romance" and post a thread there, starting your story. Not sure if I can give you a personal folder, 'cause then everyone will want one. :/ You see my dilemma?

Yeah that's fine. Thank u!

You're welcome :)

a topic for writing tips would be nice maybe?

HA!!!!!HAHAHAHAHAH heh.
That was exactly what I was thinking yesterday!
Great minds think alike.

I have two suggestions for folders. :)

Culture/language questions

and

General fiction (I wrote a story for a class and wanted to share, but it's not romance or fantasy or anything. Mystery, maybe.)

Those both seemed like great suggestions, so I hope Sparrow doesn't mind, but I went ahead and added them. : )

indeedee. We are just amazing.

lol Janosch.

How about a 'favorite lines' folder. Like, you've written a sentence you're particularly proud of and want to share...or a great line from another book.

just a thought...

My area is Creative Nonfiction. ie. Memoir, narrative, and so on. Can we have a folder for that area?

Thanks.

Yesh yesh, lets do dis. *___* We writers need something for our hearts too! :D


Yay for spreading some love and sparkles!
WHO WANTS TO MARRY ME!!?!?!? .... oh..."

Hmmmm... I'll create a section where you can just put random stuff that isn't writing, and the flirt section, making new friends, or whatever could be a part of that. Is that okay?

Though - Do keep it PG, please. :D

Sure... I actually have no idea what that is, but I'll create the folder, and you can make the threads. :)

Sure! Coming soon :)

I was wondering if anyone else would like a 'writing prompt' folder. Where there would be posted a prompt and people could submit items for a week or so from the same - and the next week would be another.

May be a lot of work, so don't know if you all want to add this to your already full plate.

Were you thinking it would be a rated sort of thing, with winners and all, or just to sort of see what people come up with?

That sounds quite fun! :D

Think David Sedaris, Lia Purpura, Joan Didion, Annie Dillard, James Frey, Nick Flynn...

I was thinking just a see what people come up with kinda thing. No rating, just the usual freindly comments from others.

That does sound fun - Sparrow, do you want to do that, or would you like me to set something up?

I can take point on it if you want, but don't know what rights/authority I would need.

You'd need to be a mod... I think... Unfortunately, all the moderator positions are taken at this moment in time...

Dana - I don't mind taking care of it, I'll upload the folder soon. Thanks! :D

Lee-Ann - Oh, okay :D Thanks :)

Was a decision made not to do the writing prompt folder?

That would be great, but I don't know if I can make that decision. What do the administrators say?

I don't know if I'm reading this right, but am still willing to take point if there is availability.

Dat sounds good to me!

Okeydoke. So what do I need to do?

Uuuuuuuuh... Heh. I'm not really sure. You might want to ask ariane about that as I am still experimenting with folder creation. I shall try and make one now.

Haha! The deed is done. It's in the Random folder and I have left it up to you to explain what it is about and for.
