Let's invite friends who are authors, people who love to read fiction, and try to get this site running again. (Not that it stopped, just slowed down) There is a discussion going on with the staff (sort of) of having a contest for best story/poem/song, etc. If you have any ideas for an award, please post them! The thing is: we have 41 members, but not a lot of them post. We want this site to be very active, so let's try to either get new members, or bring back the old ones. --------------------

Nobody ever says anything here.

I know, WordBender.

I have no clue how to get more than ten people posting. I'm thinking of sending out a mass email to remind everyone that this site is actually here.

Hopefully it's because of summer, but I have no idea.

We may not be able to get the old members back, but new members can come help make this place active! --------------------
