Sharing your writing:
Here at Writer’s Cramp, we have forums for critique and sharing of your creativity. Putting your work out there for critique and also reviewing others’ works is an activity that is encouraged.
Please take care of yourself in this area. Do not post any excerpts of your work on the forum. Instead use a service which provides links to your work. In this way, you can keep control of it at any moment you choose.
If you post something on a thread and then decide not to share, you are disrupting the whole thread and any conversation on it. This is not acceptable.
If you share a link instead, you have complete control at any time to take down your work that the link points to or change the link so people can no longer view it. This is to your benefit. Services that offer linking include Google docs and Dropbox, among a lot of others. Check out how other members share links or perform a web search to find a place that meets your requirements.
Members should offer constructive critique and only post their own work.
Another concern is your rights after you post an excerpt online. This may be of great concern to writers who are very serious about publishing. This forum is not in any way responsible for anything you post or link to in your posts. If this may affect you, please do research on this topic so you can make informed decisions regarding your online work(s).
Erotic Material/Conversation
The Erotica category has been deleted by request of ProBoards. Those discussions are not permitted anywhere on the forum and will be deleted/banned. If you wish to have discussions with others which lead into this category, please find other means such as emailing other members at a personal email, instant messengers, etc.
We apologize for this, but have absolute respect regarding ProBoards' wishes on this subject.
Thank you for reading this introduction. We are very happy you have decided to join our board. With a bit of participation, it will become your board also. Please help us in the continuation of being a friendly, supportive group. We are writers from all walks of life and location who enjoy each other’s company. Follow the Golden Rule of treating others as you would like to be treated and you will fit right in.
So what are you waiting for?
Log in for the first time, set up your space and start writing.
WELCOME!!!
