"Premium" Content -- How to do it, and should you do it?
Submitted by Illise M. on Mon, 02/08/2010 - 12:10pmDisclaimer: I believe this is my first time making a thread here on Weblit.Us, so I fear I may have posted this in the wrong place. Nevertheless, this site seemed more appropriate to pose my questions to than WFG. If there was a previous post on the subject that I missed, I apologize.
So...

Write *me* something... please?
Submitted by amharte on Fri, 02/05/2010 - 2:53amI thought I'd take a leaf out of @GabrielGadfly 's book and post a topic here about my call for guest authors.
As explained on my blog, I'm going to take a hiatus in March because I'm feeling close to burn out (and when better to take a hiatus then right after finishing a book?) That's where you come in - and get a chance to showcase your writing to a new set of readers.
A cross-promotion idea

Character death.
Submitted by jolantru on Mon, 02/01/2010 - 7:49amI think this applies for serials, novellas, novels and shorts.
How do you feel about character death?
For me, I don't like character deaths where they are plain senseless. For me, character deaths add to the tragedy/sadness/pathos. I don't like doing it - but sometimes, it's an essential plot device/tool.
Thoughts?

RIP JD Salinger

"We're freaks, that's all. Those two bastards got us nice and early and made us into freaks with freakish standards, that's all. We're the tattooed lady, and we're never going to have a minute's peace, the rest of our lives, until everybody else is tattooed, too." -- Franny and Zooey

A reorganization
Submitted by Tim Holtorf on Thu, 01/28/2010 - 8:17pmHaving some difficulty with my home email, so anyone who has emailed me, I apologize for the delay in replying. So, Mei, I will get back to you, I promise. Also, I'll be reorganizing my web blog a bit, as things will become better... organized. >.>
All Black Mask and Pale Rider adventures, plus related tales will be under BM&PR. This will also include the cast of characters short description.
A section will be devoted to Canyons of Steel, a series of sorts, but not one I keep updated as well as I'd like.

How to set up spoiler protection for Drupal forums
Submitted by capriox bovidae on Thu, 01/28/2010 - 6:35pmMaybe this is obvious to all the old Drupal hands around here, but I thought it was a neat trick: a post from Gabriel Gadfly's blog about setting up spoiler formatting for Drupal.

Logging in to Weblit.us
Submitted by capriox bovidae on Sun, 01/24/2010 - 4:23pmSo... when I go directly to Weblit.us by typing the URL into my browser address bar, I arrive at the site already logged in. However, when I'm on another DigitalNovelists site and go to Weblit.us by selecting it from the DN dropdown list, I arrive at the site as a guest, not logged in.
Is there anything I can do so that Weblit.us remembers me even when I'm coming in thru the DN bar, or is it just One of Those Things and I really should learn to remember my password? Has anyone else noticed this quirk?
UK Meet Up?
Submitted by Becka Sutton on Sun, 01/24/2010 - 1:48pmHi Guys,
I know that several of us are UK residents, so what about a UK meet-up at some point in the next few months?

Write Me Something! Guest Author Call
Submitted by Gabriel Gadfly on Fri, 01/22/2010 - 11:47pmSo, as alluded to in this topic, I'm up to my eyeballs in poetry. I currently have 18 more acrostics to write, and since I want to get them done in a timely manner, I'm putting most of my creative energies towards that. Add in a site I'm designing for a coworker, no less than three papers I need to critique for friends, my day job, life's typical nuisances and I'm not left with much time to write poetry not related to the chapbook or to work on weblit resources articles.
