Our group has grown through discussion. New members, you'll notice there are several folders here. To help keep discussion organized, try to put your thread in the folder that best matches it. To help you decide, here's a quick breakdown (with a link) on what each folder is about:
GENERAL (https://www.goodreads.com/topic/group...) -Discussion / questions that fit nowhere else -If you aren't sure where your topic belongs, then put it here and one of the moderators will sort it into the correct folder
NEWS/UPDATES (https://www.goodreads.com/topic/group...) -Important updates or news for the Inkshares community -This is mostly reserved for Inkshares staff who want to update us on important developments and give us a chance to engage in discussion on them
PROMOTE WORK (NON-INKSHARES) (https://www.goodreads.com/topic/group...) -If you are NOT an Inkshares author but have joined to discuss co-promotion ideas, this is where you can share a bit about your book
REQUESTING FEEDBACK (https://www.goodreads.com/topic/group...) -If you are looking for reviews, input on parts of your book, thoughts on a web page or blog post, etc, then this is where you can ask -Although not required, it's good etiquette if you ask for input to also look through other requests here and offer input in return
