stories

[stardust2003]

could nt  a  member  just  start a  thread  in  the  forum  and  maybe  post  one  chapter of  his or her  story

then  later  chapter  2   etc.....  maybe  even a  few pics in the  text  ....

I think writers used to do that. If you backtrack the pages here, there were some who provided story insights into their stories. I think that traction wasn't there. There weren't any members who replied to some of the stories, so the interaction became stale, like you're just posting in the air without anyone responding, and you sound like you're talking to yourself—given that there are members who just read stories and never provide their feedback (which is a valid thing, and there's nothing wrong with that.)

You only get interest from old stories and signature writers who have an established reader base.

New members don't have that. So they posted the stories instead, hoping people would read them.
