Weekly Wrap Up! (May 8 To May 15)


Looks like you guys are stuck with getting the weekly update for me today! I'll try to hit everything, but it might not be the usual format, so bear with me. It's been a busy week with a return to our Premium feature on Wednesday and some extra prompts on Friday, so if you missed out on those, here's another chance to catch up on this week's blog features.

 

Monday's feature was Timothy M's review of Red Running Shoes, written by Aditus. Timothy says... "Indeed, Red Running Shoes may take the prize as the tale which has sparked the most intense reactions so far." Wondering what he means by that? Check out the rest of his review!

 

M.A. Church's The Harvest series was the focus of Wednesday's feature reminding members of the great content in our Premium section and what purchasing a subscription does for the site in return. There's also an excerpt you can check out here from Book One: Taken.

 

Not sure if you want to write? Blocked on your usual stories? Just enjoy creating fun little flash fiction stories? Friday is definitely your day if you enjoy prompts. As a special bonus, in honor Friday the 13th, we have a special prompt #1 in addition to creative Prompts #498 and #499 as well as poetry prompt #20. Get your inspiration on by clicking here!

Cia probably forgot to look for poetry.  Renee has mentioned in the past that it's a separate search when she looks for story updates from promoted authors.

or perhaps only the stories get mentioned and not poetry?

No, poems by Dolores, Gary and me used to get mentioned every week.

 

I think they are hard to track because anything listed with the category heading of 'Poetry' gets pushed off the recent story updates as soon as the Forum Page list is full. From there, they disappear completely. It'd be nice if the poetry heading were treated like all the rest. :yes:
