I think we should have three folders for people's works: Poetry, Short Stories, and Novel Chapters, and within them individual poems/stories/chapters will have their own topics. What do you think?

Yeah, that sounds good. Maybe everyone who wanted one could have their own poetry section in a poetry folder and for each story there could be a section dedicated to it in a stories folder. And in each section for people’s work other people could give feedback. There could also be a folder for stories multiple people are working on.

Those are great ideas, Abby.

That's a good idea, Abby. We could even start a community story that everyone could work on

I like that idea!
So shall we create the folders soon?

Should I make a poetry folder?

Let's wait until Hayden replies.

Ok

And that "Where you share your work" topic should be deleted. I can do it once Hayden gives me permission.

You can delete the "where you share your work" topic.
You can create the new topics. I'll make an announcement topic, so we can share the idea.

Okay, I delayed the "where you can share your work" topic. To be clear, I will create three folders, one each for poetry, stories, and chapters?

Yes and people can create their own topics where they put their stories and poems and chapters. Eventually we can do some writing games and stuff

I made the poetry folder

Okay thanks! I'm working on my own short story right now, so I haven't really been active today

I’m confused, how would the stories and chapters folder be different. Wouldn’t the chapters be a part of the stories?

I created the short stories and book chapters folders. However, there's nothing in them yet, so they might not show up.

Short stories don't have chapters. Full novels do. Short stories are equal to about 3-6 pages. Novellas are 30 pages. Short stories and novellas can be one folder, and chapters can be another

@Abby, because chapters are part of a full length book, not a short story.

Okay, got it

The chapter folder should show up now because I added my book's first chapter to it. The short story folder is there, but I think only a mod on a browser can see it until something is added to it.

By the way, there's a typo in the group rules. Mind if I fix it?

Go ahead

I'll fix it tomorrow morning, I'm not able to right now.
