It appears I have hit a nail on the board. Are there further rules a newblet such as myself must follow before posting in the Novel or Poetry section? I feel I have missed something.
you must have been a member for 14 days and have posted a certain number of crits... that should all be spelled out in the rules 'n regs...
no offense was taken, nor was i nibbling on your not-yet-dead-bod... just politely and caringly offered the info you asked for and indicated where it can be found...
