Who We Are and What We Offer... Who Are We? A group of authors gathered to help one another, if wanted, and getting our writings validated by our peers, friends and family. What do we offer? A secure location to place your current WIP (work-in-progress) so that others may read it. Ah-ha! The proverbial caveat. Not just anyone and not everyone! Only those people that YOU deem safe and reliable to read it. Again, securely behind a double password area. You decide who can read what you've put there. WHY? Are you tired of printing out 15 pages of your latest story or novel for your friend to read? Oh, wait. You have SIX people who are reading your story to give you feedback. So, now you've just printed about 20% of a ream of paper. And the INK! Unless you are one of the more fortunate authors making that 6-digit income, this gets costly with paper and ink cartridges. THEN there is the feedback. John wrote on the documents you gave him, Linda called to tell you what she thought, Jim passed you a hastily scribbled note and well, your mom told you while visiting. Don't forget, Betsy had given you a fabulous suggestion for a plot twist. Now you need to collect all those reviews and suggestions, IF you can remember or find the notes. This site eliminates the problems. They come in, read and leave comments. All neatly collected for you. If they decide to print it out, it is their ink and paper. Plus there are special extras for you: a blog, submission tracking, games, chatrooms with other authors and more. Take a tour. The bottom line is -- not a lot of frills, just getting the job done and having fun.
