Yes very true! I think I’m just gonna say my book is for YA audiences! And yeah obviously there will be middle graders who read more adult-themed stuff. But for all the ones who don’t that would be unfair, to say the least, if I through something in there that they wouldn’t feel comfortable reading.

Hey SE people!

We’ve launched a cool new feature on the forum called groups.

You can find them in the nav bar like so:

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.

So far there are three types of groups:

@katthewriter What you do is keep track of all the words you’ve written this week (Monday -Sunday) of all the creative things you’ve written. Then at the end of the week, you submit your final word count in the link that Daeus provided. Good Luck!
