: michaelson, i disagree. i just read the vault and there were many times where some "regulars" praised new authors works. goodsport added the new stories and new chapters every time he posted those chapter logs. thunderous silence usually came after he posted the new stuff in the logs. i'm not surprised he stopped

: : Just speaking for my own efforts, it's been disappointing to see absolutely no response, except for Tessa's kind remark, to any effort currently being made. Why even bother? I'll continue the "Black Book" for my own personal enjoyment, but it seems that there is a closed "clique" over at this area of the forum that refuses to recognize the work of new writers TO this forum. That's why it died, as "regulars" either ran out of time for one reason or another, or had to move on, they have not been replaced by fresh blood because of the apparent disinterest of the original gathered group of writers. I have dabbled in writing for years myself, and was only inspired to even share my efforts from reading the work of the folks over here. All I received was thundering silence. Who needs that? I had that before I came here. I'm sure others have been turned off as well. Best of luck, and see you over at the regular forum. Regards. Michaelson

I guess we'll have to just agree to disagree. I asked for input, but after Goodsport posted the new chapters, you just reinforced my original statement above, thunderous silence. I remember when the fanfic chapters were going on there was a running comment and Q & A back and forth regarding construction, character development, etc. Now, absolutely nothing. I stand by my statement. Regards. Michaelson
