New Website
Well I thought I'd start the ball rolling with the new website information right here! Thanks to Marc who's given us this useful (cough) program to write stuff onto the blog site with! Anyhoo!
We're all after feedback on the new site, it's functionality, it's look, and any features you may wish to see implemented. Anything that you made you thing "I wish I could just..." or "That'd be handy.." with the current site, we'd like to hear! The best ones will be implemented, others may already be in place.
As it stands right now, there's no available login details to be able to use the profile/management side of things. At the moment, all we're asking for are ideas. Nearing the end of the project, there'll be a forum setup specifically for the new site's feedback, as this is probably an impractical place to post bug reports and stuff!
More information will be posted here in the future, especially when it's possible to login.
Finally! http://beta.short-story.net !! Enjoy!

Reading & Commenting
Reading & Commenting: We know that an important part of submitting your story is getting feedback, it can be good or bad, as long as it's constructive. But what better feedback could you possibly get, than from another author?
We're hoping that if you have read a story from one of our authors on the site, please start leaving comments on their work. This is not only beneficial to the author's writing, but it also gives you practise at proof-reading, which is an invaluable skill for a writer.
A lot of feedback about our site as a whole, suggests to us that to be a more efficient writers website, we need our author's to help each other along the way.
