New Forum Categories

Post by Nathan Bransford » April 24th, 2010, 3:53 pm

Hi everyone, I did a little reorganization on the Forums today - the Feedback section is now a category with four subforums:

Queries
Excerpts
Synopses
Plot Outlines
Connect with a Critique Partner

This will hopefully make the Feedback easier to navigate and will allow everyone to find what they're looking for.

And since you are here, you have discovered the new Town Hall section, which is where you'll find general announcements, intros from the newcomers, Forum suggestions, and anything else that doesn't fit the other Forums.

Thanks to everyone for all of your great suggestions, and hope you enjoy the changes - please don't hesitate to post in the suggestion box or contact me or Ink if you have ideas for making the Forums better.

I'm so glad I can finally dust my old rags off and have somewhere to wear them.

Thank you, Nathan. ;-)

Wow, the place looks like a team of magical drawf-dudes swarmed in, scrubbed the dishes, picked up the dirty socks, put the books back on the shelves, and moved all the furniture around. Cool job!

Excellent facelift! Effective delineation of new forums. Now, if only I could find my kid gloves so that I can dive back in.

Wow. I neglect to visit the forums for a few days and look what happens. Shame on me.

Well, Nathan, I'm afraid you missed the mark on this whole reorganization scheme of yours. If you are going to go to the effort of breaking out the Feedback, the next logical step would have been to breakout the Procrastination Forum into its own logical subcategories:

Cute Animals and New Pets

TV shows and Movies We Watch Instead of Writing

Drinking, Nosy Questions, and Does This Look Infected To You?

Of course, it's not too late to consider this the next time things begin to get a bit unwieldy. Just trying to be helpful after all.
