Rules and Welcome

I want this to be a place where any non-cishet (or disabled, or nonwhite, or otherwise on the outside boundaries of society) writers can feel safe sharing their work & working with other writers to improve their craft or simply share the love of the art.

Writing comes from the soul and reflects your inner world. For those of us who don't let ourselves be contained within arbitrary social systems, it can be maddening and disheartening trying to share our art with others. Here, we can share with other people who know the basics of life outside the boxes, and who will better understand any works that reflect on that.

Post whatever writing-focused questions you have, or any writing you're working on. If it's a longer piece, you might think about giving an external link. Prompting discussion and feedback is welcome and encouraged.

Rules

1. be nice
   
2. be chill
   
3. don't worry too much about anything. this is all informal
   
4. give & receive. online class rules. comment on other people's works if you're looking to share your own <3 try to give to the extent that you'd like to get. i'll be trying to do the same
   
5. anything from chapter writing, articles, poetry, ttrpg storylines and onward are welcome
   
6. use content warnings when applicable
   
7. if you have questions about the forum, you can ask them here. anything else can be a new thread. we have a board for original (non)fiction and a board for fanworks. this thread is in the writing discussion board, where you can talk about the general aspects of writing as opposed to talking about specific works.
