Just read every precious word I write. ;) j/k - read enough to give a fair review. Speaking of, I should probably get back to writing. My hiatus is going on 7 weeks and I'm out of excuses. Time to write! By all means, don’t slog through all the crap. Just read every precious word I write. ;)

j/k – read enough to give a fair review.

Speaking of, I should probably get back to writing. My hiatus is going on 7 weeks and I’m out of excuses. Time to write!

So, keep doing whatcha do. I think the fact that you're up front about the editor review process speaks well to it's fairness and legitimacy, and I'm glad it's not a "pay no attention to the man behind the curtain" situation.

The only thing you have to remember is that you'll have to provide a list of tags, a description, the tagline, and maybe a warning of unsuitable content. But besides that submission to WFG is open to any reader. PS: I've submitted 13 Bullets, because I enjoyed that one myself. What Chris said.

My main problem with WFG now is that there does not seem to be any way to add fiction other than author submission. I would love to see Dirty Red Kiss or 13 Bullets on WFG, but, frankly, I don't see their authors submitting them. Any chance we could have some kind of user submission? Definitely interesting.

No focus and no one clear idea. But I suppose that's only to be expected after 4 or so months of studying. I personally believe that this is one of my weakest articles to date.

Oh well. It's an amusing piece in my view at least. I've never been so proud to be semi-professional. Can’t believe no one’s commented on this yet. Oh well.
