Sorry, I don't know if this is the correct place to ask these questions, but I would like to post a short story I have written and am not sure what the proper etiquette/protocol is to do so. I notice that many stories are collaborative efforts, but mine is not. It has a definitive beginning and end. It's over 1800 words in length.
Here's my list of questions:
1. Ss there a character limit for posts on this message board (e.g. 1000 characters/posting) or is it unlimited?
2. If there is a finite number of characters per post, what is it and what is the best way to break the story up?
3. I would like feedback on the story and is it OK to have readers PM or leave comments regarding the work. I feel that I cannot grow as a writer without proper feedback.
4. This is more of an FYI...please point out any grammatical mistakes. My English professor always said that editors are a dime a dozen, but good writers are rare.
Thanks for everyone's help.
I think the only hard and fast rules are posted in the guidelines.
I post stories that I have written (http://www.renaissancefestival.com/forums/index.php?topic=1547.0) as well as one in which others are also posting.
If you have a story I think you should go ahead and post it.
