Thanks for thinking about adding fiction to dakka, a lot of us love to read it. However, barely anybody ever comments on fiction, even though each piece posted here is read an average of 200 times!

If you want more exposure for your writing, then you should add your fiction as an article as well as posting it here. Go to the 'Add an Article' page and at the 'Use This Template:' field, choose 'Fiction/Fluff'. Type in the title of your fiction in the 'Proposed Article Name' field and click 'Begin'. An empty template will be created with some basic stuff for you to fill out... Information about you (optional), Title of the story with optional chapter headers, and a section for you to add links to other stories you might have written on the web.

Adding your story as an article will get it much more exposure and will ensure that it does not drop off to the 20th page of a forum, giving it a much longer lifespan. If you need any help adding an article then feel free to ask in the Nuts and Bolts forum!
