Over the years there have been multiple attempts to get a good cult going for all the upcoming authors/poets out there, but it never really stays active.
I would have this thread be a collection of works by members or links to their prospective works so we can help each other out with editing, suggestions, critiques, etc.

My sig has a link to all my stuff (I put up one piece a day.) Let me know what you think, and I'd be happy to do the same.

This sounds like a bad idea.. I can just see dozens of highschool kids handing in the same plagurised stories from somone who was harmlessly posting there story online.

Plagiarized*

You have to realize if they handed it in word for word, any teacher/professor can run just a sample sentence in google and it'll shoot them straight to the source.

I knew kids who plagiarised all through high school and teachers never caught on. It was always the smartest kids that cheated too.

It's easy to do, so why wouldn't they?
It's up to the teacher to curb it, but why would they want to do the extra work to catch them?

In the end they're only fucking themselves, you can't pull that shit with your thesis.
