OPEN EVENTS AND COMPETITIONS

Submit a story from one of our writing prompts

The Writer’s Gallery:

— is a unique concept.  We do not intend this to be about any one aspect of the writing craft.  We are not only competitions, or showcases, or discussion forums, or advice columns, or prompts,  or a place to compare interpretations; we are an encyclopedic source, willing to expand, open to suggestion, and eager to meet the needs of the writing profession in every genre and format.

Below is an outline that we as the editors and you as a participant can pull out from time to time and gauge the purpose, the content and the quality of this site.  We as your hosts and the whole community as users and participants can work together to build something more diverse, more significant, and more useful than any writing resource available.  This is NOT going to be an ordinary site, we will settle for nothing less than EXTRAORDINARY.

I am sure I am forgetting some things, but the idea is simple (and terribly complex), The Writer’s Gallery is going to be a One-Stop-Shop for writers in every genre and in every area of writing from fiction to periodical to technical. We are the editors, but belongs to you, the writer’s of the world.
