Hi everyone. I pitched an idea to a few other administrators and users the other day proposing this new feature, and was met with some positive reactions. Essentially, all it is, is someone interviewing a CPW writer. Picking their brain, only in the non-violent way a lot of our CPW stories might suggest. The interview could then be posted somewhere on the front page of the site. This would not only give the interviewed writer more exposure, but would benefit other amateur writers who could glean some of the tips that the writer might give.

As an example, the interviewer asks the writer what gives them inspiration, where they learned to write, how they came up with the idea for the "XXXX" story, how they take their coffee, etc etc. Think of it like that Jerry Seinfeld show where he rides around in a car with another comedian, asking his snarky questions. Only this would be horror-based. And less snarky.

Anyway, I think it would be best to start this out as a quarterly (every three months) feature, just to see how it goes. "The Writer's Lounge" is also just kind of a generic placeholder title. If you can think of a better one, please, put it below! Also, feel free to add a vote template, just make sure you put thoughts with it so we can get a better feel for what the community as a whole thinks.
