I am looking for writers to do a monthly emailed newsletter thing with literary discussion/review thing, submitted writings, some highlighted thing of the month, maybe a writing tips column.

Kaligraphic is going to do a tech tips column. I asked someone from a catholic site about doing something. I don't know yet what she would write.

Please PM me if you are interested, or better yet, join the forum and PM me there. My name at that site is joankira.

Also, please submit work to the forum/discuss writing and liturature at the forums there.

The main site, which is under process of improvment is
http://www.christianpoetrysociety.com

The forums are http://christianpoetrysociety.com/Forums/

Oh yeah, and I'm running the site, ssj2gohan is paying for it, so this is an inside operation.

Please don't bump; I will, however, accomplish much the same thing.

I think I might be able to do the writing tips column, though I'd like further specification as to what kind of thing you're looking for.

Meanwhile, what types of writing and highlighted works are you looking for?

Thanks, that's totally awsome of you.

Really? Writing tips, lets see, I don't know.

- probably not too into punctuation but maybe certain problematic grammar areas to just briefly highlite,

- probably something like composition from school minus the class homework and with some literature class thrown in,

- maybe something like what characterizes a certain kind of writing and what makes it good,

- introduction to different kinds of writings (sub-genres if I may refer to them as such, poetic patterns, etc.),

- ideas, techniques, etc. behind certain kinds of writings,

- common writing difficulties/mistakes,

- effective pre-writing steps,

- practical how to sit down, focus and write ideas but this would not be as regularly brought up,

- if writer desires, suggested writing development activity generally emphasizing the topic of the column.

- Poems,

-Short stories,

- Longer stories
Full story for the board
The first page or the first page of a section to highlite accompanied by a brief discriptive review encouraging reading the rest.

- Nothing will be added to newsletter unless the requested permission to do is granted. This would most likely be done over PM at the site.

I do not have much to offer in terms of stories at the moment, but I could probably do this much. Give me an intended length (and a specific topic, if you want the newsletter to have a focus) and I'll give you a column.

This is going to sound stupid, but what exactly do you mean with "bump". :sweat:

bumping is posting in a thread just to bring it to the top of the list. It's an art form in some forums, and taboo in others.
