Curated Story Recommendations: I've been sharing some of my favorite short stories here. Hoping this becomes a go-to spot for everyone to find a quality read each day—whether you're on the go or winding down before bed. I hope these picks make your daily reads more enjoyable.
-
Exploring New Sources Together: Let's not only share our favorite stories but also help each other discover fresh sources. Whether it's hidden gems on a blog, a captivating podcast, or an up-and-coming author on a niche platform, let's make this community a hub for uncovering diverse sources of short stories.
-
Platform for New Voices: More than anything I hope we have a platform for emerging writers to showcase their work, ensuring that original perspectives have space to flourish. I love nothing more than reading works by one of our own.
-
Constructive Feedback Culture: Encourage members to provide thoughtful, constructive feedback, fostering an environment of growth and improvement for writers at all skill levels. This relies on members posting their own work which I strongly endorse.
-
Respect for Copyright: While a pirate myself, for the sake of this instance's rules, I hope to promote respect for intellectual property. Anytime I haven't posted a link it's a story pre 1923.
-
Engagement and Collaboration: Facilitate collaboration among members, fostering a sense of community through joint projects, anthologies, and shared endeavors. This seems a bit too optimistic for a community so small but one can dream.
-
More Meta Discussions: Encourage meta discussions in our community to foster a deeper understanding of narrative choices, enabling members to explore diverse perspectives and refine their storytelling skills collaboratively.
I also intend to add a few communities on the sidebar for discovery. Please recommend any community you think we should have tagged.
Oh totally, I've got all of his stuff. Dudes brilliant. Have you ever checked out the author "Exurb1a"? Weirdly enough the guy/girl? used to be or maybe still is a YouTuber. I've never watched their videos, but they wrote a bunch of short story books and it's cool because most of the stories actually lead to a certain destination or exist in it universe together, which is always cool. Sometimes they just tie into each other. Anyway, their sci-fi writings are very cool and thought provoking in my opinion. If you're into that kind of sci-fi where it's totally out there stuff. Last I recall their books were pretty cheap on Kindle. Maybe just a couple of bucks but I could be wrong. Check him/her out if you haven't.
Exurb1a writes stories? I only know him from youtube where I savor his videos because they're just a dimension above every thing else I get to watch. They're transcendent. The guy just has so much passion for seemingly random but insanely deep things.
Oh then you'll love the shit he writes. Check it out out for sure.
I havent, i'll give that a go. Thanks for the recommendation!
For sure, hope you enjoy.
