	Please Read Here First These topics are intended to explain to you how things work here. If you have questions, please email kdw@hatrack.com	7	34	June 30, 2009 09:55 PM	Kathleen Dalton Woodbury
	Next, Please Introduce Yourself Just registered at Hatrack? Before you can begin posting and introduce yourself, please email your introduction to Kathleen Dalton-Woodbury first. Once she authorizes your posting privileges, you can start a topic here to tell us about yourself, and we can welcome you and answer your questions about how this all works.	1505	9047	July 02, 2009 09:46 PM	Kathleen Dalton Woodbury
	Open Discussions About Writing We discuss general topics on writing here. If you want volunteers to give you feedback on your story, please go to one of the Fragments and Feedback areas or to the Nonfiction area.	5592	91057	July 03, 2009 04:47 PM	Kathleen Dalton Woodbury
	Fragments and Feedback for Short Stories Need volunteers to look at your short story? This is the place to ask for them. Start a topic and give it the title of your story. Give the genre (SF, fantasy, mystery, whatever), tell us how many words you have written so far, and whether you just want feedback on the 13 lines or volunteers to read the whole thing. Then post the first 13 lines of your story. Please do not post more than the first 13 lines of your work in any topic here at Hatrack.	3578	40044	July 03, 2009 04:53 PM	Kathleen Dalton Woodbury
	Fragments and Feedback for Novels Need volunteers to look at your novel? This is the place to ask for them. Start a topic and give it the title of your novel. Give the genre (SF, fantasy, mystery, whatever), tell us how many words you have written so far, and whether you just want feedback on your first 13 lines and/or a summary of your novel, or whether you want volunteers to read a partial (the first 20 pages and an outline of the rest). Then post the first 13 lines of your novel and/or a short summary (think of it as what you'd put in a query letter). Please do not post more than the first 13 lines or a short summary of your work in any topic here at Hatrack. This also a good place to post your planned queries/synopses/summaries for feedback. Also, you can post the first 13 lines from other chapters as you go along, but please do it with one topic per chapter and label the topic with the novel title and chapter number.	666	6842	July 02, 2009 08:38 AM	Kathleen Dalton Woodbury

	Discussing Published Hooks & Books Topics here can start with a 13-line quote from the start of a published work and discuss what works and doesn't work about the opening. Or they can be for discussion of other aspects of published books.	283	3087	June 23, 2009 05:21 AM	Kathleen Dalton Woodbury

	Writing Challenges Here is where you post the first 13 lines of your submission to the latest writing challenge and ask for feedback on those lines and/or the whole story. This is also where other writing challenges, such as Liberty Hall, can be announced.	127	2951	July 03, 2009 01:38 PM	Kathleen Dalton Woodbury
	Grist for the Mill This is for topics where we share the good and bad things that happen in our lives that don't particularly have to do with writing. Who knows? It might give you or someone else a story idea. It is NOT for polemic of any kind.	148	3153	July 03, 2009 02:19 PM	Kathleen Dalton Woodbury
	Character Interviews Create a topic for your character and give a description, then as others ask your character questions, you can answer them as if you were the character. We hope this will help you get to know your character better.	94	704	June 28, 2009 04:37 PM	Kathleen Dalton Woodbury
