  • ESSAYS
    There are many good essayists, like Erma Bombeck with her suburban humor, the literary sketches of William Maxwell, Dave Barry's self deprecating, oddball view of life, and so many more. There are moments in our lives that move us to laughter, anger, tears, nostalgia, and a whole gamut of emotions. These are the seeds of the essay. Create your own moments, share them with other writers, test your words and thoughts and give and receive criticism and praise. This is your chance to work out the kinks and streamline your prose, either for yourself or for publication.

  • MEMOIRS
    Memoirs refers not only to essays, but novels, diaries, journals, etc. Memoirs are the moments in our past and our present that beg to be written down and remembered for ourselves and for future generations. Work with other writers or pen your thoughts or give and receive applause and criticism. You don't have to be famous to write your memoirs. Every moment is worth saving even if no one knows your name.

  • ROMANCE
    Through flights of fancy into the arms of love, you weave your magic spell. You may lean toward bodice-ripping historicals or modern and/or paranormal romances, but for you the thrill of writing includes that element of two people finding and losing themselves in each other. Consider this your training ground, your home, your place to shine and refine the sometimes tortuous route to happiness, either in short story or novel form.

  • MYSTERY
    Murder, secrets, mayhem, and intrigue are the building blocks of good mystery stories. Perhaps you submitted your futures mysterious and received a rejection. Now is the time to find out why. Share your vision and your work with like-minded writers and offer your views on their mysterious happenings. Fix faulty plot points, refine and recreate your characters, find the missing link between your words and an editor's pocketbook in your short story or novel.

  • HORROR
    Chills, thrills, and dark moonless nights where things that go bump in the night emerge to stalk unsuspecting humans and their families are your meat and drink. You live for the adrenaline rush of running for your life from zombies, ghosts, demons, and the every day menace of serial killers waiting to add your trophy to their collection. Scare us with your best or find out what you left out of your horror stew in your short story or novel.

  • EROTICA
    Bodice-ripping romances don't do it for you, but you like spice in your prose, a torrential tide of longing and desire crashing against the headlands of sexuality. Look for your voice and your heat here.

  • FLASH
    Vignettes and flash fiction are a special form of fiction that requires the writer to pen beginning, middle and end in a very few words. Is this your specialty? Would you like to learn or help others learn this dynamic form of storytelling? You have the right address. Show us your stuff, but remember that FLASH means just that...a story in 500 words or less. Can you do it?
