Some ideas

Now that our group is getting bigger and we're writing a bit more, maybe a few suggestions are in order...

Tags
When you write a post ( not a comment ) there's a field at the bottom below where you type the post in; it's called "labels for this post". When you write a post, you should at least label it with your name, and what it's about. If it's a project/assignment put the word "item" in there. The tags are what the search functionality keys off of... so what you want the post to be found for in a search should go in the tag list.

Project topics
To keep things a bit orderly, an idea would be to only post the new project assignments on Monday. A week for each topic seems to feel right, I think.

Feedback
Of course no one has to post anything... but most of the time most people do. Read that, and if you have some time, comment on it. Comments help everyone, if only showing that you read what they took the time to write. Mention something that you liked, something that stuck out as odd, or something that you have a question about.

Stuff besides assignments
If there's something on your mind about writing, or about the current project, feel free to post about it. It's not a blog about assignments... it's a community around writing. Share what's on your mind.


More later, probably. : )

And no poetry.

why do you fear poetry, Hemp?

Surely even the heart of a lawyer beats with passion for something?

Hemp I will soon show you... yeah I'm really not a fan of most ameture poetry. It's usually pretty bad, and lacks any traditional form.

oh and would you guys mind if i posted my fables for fictions piece. I would like to get opinions on it.

I am certainly okay with you posting whatever you would like.
