Fiction Writing

Hey students!  Are you interested in writing fiction? Are you looking to improve your craft?  I would suggest blogging your stories and inviting comments. You can't be sure your comments will always be helpful, but if not you can always delete them. To get started if you want to post links to your work here in the comment section feel free!
