Hope everyone has had a good week. Before we get started with the wrap up, instead of sharing Myr's site survey (since it's closed) I want to share a different message from Myr. It's currently posted as an announcement, but in case the announcement is taken down, I'm not going to just link to it. Instead I'll post it here for you to see.

I realized one of the new aspects of the upgrade that I have not spent a lot of time explaining is our Story Review system. When you look at the list of completed stories, the stories that have reviews, have stars shown on them. If they don't, they still need reviews: https://www.gayauthors.org/stories/browse/?sortby=story_last_update&filter=status_1

Go through the list and be sure to leave a review!

It is really simple.

  1. Select a star rating from 1 to 5, with 5 being the best.
  2. Write a review that is spoiler free that highlights what you think other people should know about the story.  If you are leaving a critical or low rated review, please make your comments constructive so that the author has an opportunity to improve their writing.  We writers usually appreciate this. I know I do.
  3. If you are reading a story review and you like it and found it helpful, be sure to mark it as helpful.

 

 

If you need help, Myr also posted a youtube video!

 

 

Now, for the rest of the wrap up!

I missed the Ask An Author feature this week. Does anyone know if @Dark's okay? I haven't heard from her in quite a while.

I haven't heard from Dark for a while. But toward the start of summer, Dark posted on her profile that she was laid off, so I just suspected that she's been looking for a job and will be back if/when she can be.
