Description

This group is for writers of fiction, any type. We'll even take poets and humorists. I expect everyone to give honest appraisals of any work posted, but try to be polite about it. No free pats on the back, you must earn them.

Be advised, if you don't want an honest, probably brusque appraisal of your work, don't post it here.

I had a dream early this morning
