Join the group at the heart of eFiction and workshop some stories with friends.

To comment a story, scroll down on the HOME tab, find a link to an uploaded story, give it a read through, and leave helpful comments on the Document. After you finish in-line comments, add a response to the post.

The ideal response contains:
– First impressions
– Plot (what you like / what needs work)
– Character (what you like / what needs work)
– Mechanics (what you like / what needs work)
– Conclusion

Workshopees, do not comment on the document itself. In a traditional workshop, writers are banned from speaking during the workshop. It is too easy to try to justify yourself when you can respond directly to comments/criticism. Let the text speak for itself.

To upload your own story, go to http://docs.google.com (sign up for account if you don’t have one already) and upload your document using the button next to CREATE. Click the Share button in the top right and allow comments for anyone with the link. Then come back here and share the link. Please mark your story with a [GENRE] tag.

Please practice good workshop karma.
