Featured Writers, Featured Stories ... some info

16 Years Ago


Hey! Have you ever wondered how I select a writer or story to be featured?
Me too!

This is how I do it. I select the next writer in sequence. I select a writing at random.

Why do I do this?

Just to mix it up a bit.

The featured writer should be read. Plain and simple there, wot? Read them to get a feel for that writer's style or content. The featured writing should be read/analyzed/critiqued for content and story crafting. How did they do it? Why do you think they did it that way? How did it make you feel, as a writer? Would you have done it that way and why would you have done it differently?

These things will help you improve as a writer. AQnd, through honest appraisal, the writer being critiqued should also grow in form and content ... and expression.

That is the how and why I do the things I do for featuring someone and someone's writing.

Cheers! And keep writing!

Doc.
