  • Story A Day
    The Story A Day forum is for those who want to participate in an initiative to write something every day. It's open to everyone, and members can participate or drop out as and when it suits them. Anyone is welcome to read and comment. It tends to operate in bursts, several members going at it for a month at a time then dropping quiet until the next burst. It's tougher than it looks.
