Groups are hubs for writers to gather around something they share in common. They include a Facebook-like feed and most of them also include their own forums.

My deadline for editing is the 21st of June, so keep an eye out for a notification about beta-reading around that time. 😀

In reply to - April J. Rhys posted an update @ariella-newheart XD So I found this public message thing, and I don’t know if it works in the place of a DM? If not, we can jump back to the thread, I guess.

I will note that it’s actually just a prologue I wrote about a year ago, which is a bit out of date because the story has changed a lot since then. (I’m also a better writer now. xD) So it’s not the official story, but it might give you a bit of a feel for it. I won’t be posting any more of it (I’m…[Read more]

In reply to - April J. Rhys posted an update @steward-of-the-pen O.O I cool, I didn’t know we could do public messages like this! 😀 Nice. Okay.

I already have almost 40,000 words in my story, if you want to read it now and see if you like it to read it once I get closer to completing it.
