Writers Loft
Writings and Writers of Original Fiction
|
|
| Name: | A Community For Writers |
| Theme: | Writing and Writers of Original Fiction |
| Location: | United States |
| About: | Welcome to the Writers Loft, an original fiction community for talking about the writing process, troubleshooting troublesome writing problems, brainstorming, seeking beta readers, getting opinions on something you are working on and asking questions about writing and the business of writing.
Discussions are great and very much encouraged. If you want to get an opinion on something you are working on or if you are having a wrestling match with 20 evil plot bunnies all at once and need to narrow your choice down to one or two this is the place for you. Maybe your story took a wrong turn at Albuquerque and you need help figuring out where things went wrong this is the place for you. If you need to test out a piece of your world building or if you need to run a character by other eyes to check for Mary Sue/Gary Stuishness this is the place for you. Welcome.
There will be regular features like character building and world building food for thought exercises that may be useful for original fiction and fanfic writers. Please note, however, that this community is geared toward original fiction so you will need to utilize one of the many fanfic communities to post your fanfic work.
Updated Guidelines:
+Ask questions, post your thoughts on writing related topics, start writing related discusions.
+Please do not post your fanfic work in the ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif) writers_loft, this community is for posting original fiction.
+Do not join just to pimp your own community, it's impolite and I will now be removing such posts. If you do want to promote your comm, ask me first. You may ask in this thread: http://community.livejournal.com/writers_loft/2672.html
+You can post snippets, scenes or a chapter of your original work in progress (WIP) but you MUST place them behind a cut if they take up most of a smaller sized (15" monitor) screen length.
+If you post long, stringy lines of poetry that are not hidden behind a cut I will fly over and eat you messily.
+If you do post your work, you may want to friends lock the post to provide your work some protection.
+If you are posting something that is not suitable for minors, you MUST place it behind a cut and put up a warning label.
+Do NOT start or engage in flame wars or I will fly over and eat you messily
+Be considerate when you critique someone's work, constructive criticism rather than a critical is appreciated.
+Ask questions about writing, the business end of things, the process, the nuts and bolts of writing, grammar, character creation, creating tension…
+Keep to writing related topics.
+Have fun and be nice.
