I'm looking for a place to share my short stories and flash fiction, get comments and critiques, and give feedback in return. There are a fair few websites but they all seem to either focus on smut or fanfiction. Do you have any recommendations for active writing communities?

Have you tried Critique Circle? You join, you review a bit of writing from others and then you can post your own work for review. I haven't used it for a few years, but the community was great when I was using it.

Ohh that sounds exactly like what I'm looking for!

i've been playing on 4thewords for awhile now, and while i'm not super active in the forums, they are very, very active. it's not free, but the subscription isn't horribly expensive, and the artwork is to die for. you may even be able to see the forums without a subscription? i'm not entirely sure.

I use 4thewords as well! The forums could be good idea. Let me know if you want to do a co-op battle some time.
