Board Thread:Writer's Showcase/@comment-5643552-20150227172947

Since this proposal has received pretty much unanimous support, I decided to go ahead and create this board.

What is this? Basically, this is a forum for authors to showcase their finished work. In theory, this will give authors a better chance at their getting stories read, give good new pastas more exposure and make it easier for readers to access fresh pasta all in one fell swoop. Let's hope it works that way in practice.

Writer's Showcase Forum Rules
 * Your story must be on the main site first. To submit a story, go to Special:CreatePage or follow this guide.
 * The thread must contain the following:
 * A link to the story at the very top of the thread, like this: Story title (note: the thread title should also have the story title, minus the brackets).
 * A section where you introduce yourself as an author and give a brief synopsis of the story.
 * It it highly recommended that you put it through the Writer's Workshop first, although this is not necessarily required.
 * If your story is deleted on the main site, your forum post will also be removed.
 * Unfinished stories will be removed.
 * The story should have the by-user template (main site ONLY; do not do this in the thread itself).
 * Don't include more than one story in a single thread; one thread = one story. Possible exception: If the stories are a part of a series or if your story is broken into multiple pages due to the length.
 * You're allowed to bump your thread once a month for a total of three consecutive months, after which you will have to wait three months before bumping it again. Note that this only applies if you bump it three times in a row. This is to prevent the board from being spammed with shameless self-bumps.
