Community Standards

This is a place for stories—not cruelty. Critique the work with respect. Never attack the writer. Honest disagreement is welcome; humiliation, harassment, threats, discrimination, sexual remarks, stalking, doxxing, and personal attacks are not.

Immediate-removal violations include credible threats, predatory conduct, attempts to contact minors privately, sexual comments directed at youth, hate speech, publication of private information, targeted harassment, and ban evasion.

Reviews must address the story or book. Explain what stayed with you, what worked, what could have been clearer, and who might enjoy it. Do not speculate about a writer’s private life or identity.

We may remove content, preserve moderation evidence, warn or suspend members, permanently ban serious offenders, and report suspected exploitation, credible threats, or unlawful behavior when required or reasonably appropriate.
