Welcome everyone! Post anything you'd like in any stage of completion or lack thereof. Prose, poetry, plays, screenplays, music, journalism, reviews, whatever you're working on and would like to share. It's all welcome!
One thing to address now is that a few people have voiced concerns over first publishing rights and how contributing here might affect that. Literary journals like to consider themselves the first publisher of a particular work. If they think it's been published elsewhere, they lose interest. Fair enough. My personal standpoint (which is not legally informed in any way) is to look at this as a community, not a magazine. Writers aren't publishing, only sharing. No one's in charge and no one's getting paid. If you still have serious concerns about legal stuff, don't contribute anything here that you aspire to eventually publish elsewhere in a similar form. Anyone with more to add about that, feel free to speak up.
Other than that, happy writing!
