Some of us have written short stories, fanfics, boardfics, etc. at the old boards, and I feel we should move our creations to this forum. What do you think, gang?

Please note only the Authors themselves should do this. Do not copy other peoples works without permission. (Just to make that clear)

On a remotely related note:
I noticed that Brorien has put her* story "The Road through Hell" on the stamps board. However, there may be some people here that are featured in that story. Butterfly and Five (Dane) spring to mind. I know it's her writing, but some people might not care to feature in the story any more.
I do not mean to start off a flamewar, it's just an FYI.

*Brorien is a she, isn't she?

Indeed, thanks for adding that, Tephlon.

I agree that we should only move our own stuff.

As for Brorien (it's a he), if anyone has any objections to being featured in his story, I suggest they send him a PM on the stamps forum.

it's funny though, I thought they were too "nice" for him... he certainly felt the need to tell them all he wasn't sticking around.

Those poor stampers... ah well.

Oops: Mr. Brorien....

One more thing: I think we should so much move as copy the old thread. Leave the old story there for the newbies to discover.
Because unless you feel that you've written very personal stuff that you don't want to keep there, don't forget that other people have commented on the story and in deleting the thread you will also delete those comments.

I'd like to read it, what sort of book is it?

woah! woah, big hold on there...

if we "move" stuff to here, we are talking about copying it. deleting stuff on the old site is still a no-no. that's still our history!

I agree with Garner. We are *not* deleting anything.

How do I make a copy of an entire thread to bring to this site?

The easiest way is the view printer friendly version then copy and paste.

If I just copy an entire page from the old site & then paste it in a new topic, it looks really weird. The different comments made by users will be there but it's all one long post!

so edit them out?

Just so everyone is aware, there is a section on the website specifically for submitting stories. (The link is on the front page of the website.)

Rather than post a story on the forum, where the thread will be interrupted by reader comments, it is better to submit the story to the stories section mentioned above. There is an option for people to submit comments, but the comments will show up separately, so they don't interrupt the story. This will make the stories much easier to read.

I just submitted Simon the Evil Sorcerer, hopefully it will be up on the site.

I'm honestly not sure if I can be bothered to move my stories. Camrille's freaking huge by now (15 chapters, over 250 pages/220 000 words) The saga is smaller but still not easy to handle.

The submit writing is a great thing but I find it awkward and difficult to use.

I have a habit of posting the stories in 1000 word pieces (about what I write in one day) and several of those would make one chapter. That doesn't work with the 'submit writing' would it? It seems to me that the story have to be finished before posting or you're likely to have over a hundred parts of camrille lying around.

I haven't written anything recently for just that reason, I have no idea what to do with it, if I actually did get anything written. :(

That which does not kill me has committed a serious mistake.
