Re: writing safety
If you are THAT worried, don't post it. It is that simple. Period, exclamation point. I don't think the admins are going to create a member's only section just for people who are paranoid that the work they CHOSE to put online will be copied by someone somewhere. I repeat, if you are THAT worried, DO NOT post it.
Re: writing safety
Agreed. Never share anything that you are afraid will be stolen or copied. This actually goes for almost anything related to making money.Bluesecrets wrote:If you are THAT worried, don't post it.

I would add that if you are that worried, you should be a very very good writer, or you are wasting your chance to get readers and feedback that will improve your writing.

Re: writing safety
@ Bluesecrets: Of course I don't expect anybody to make a special section for the other writers and me. It was just a thought. That would be a nice resource though. If I had any idea how to make a website I'd do that, but I'm no computer wiz.ottoatm wrote:Agreed. Never share anything that you are afraid will be stolen or copied.

@Ottoatm: I doubt I'm a very good writer, but it's very difficult for me to come up with anything original. I've already got a small bit of my writing in one of the threads (I think it's the "What castle factions make up your Lego castle world?" thread): feel free to PM me your thoughts on it if you want. This goes for everyone else. (Don't be overly generous please; I do need to improve after all.)

Re: writing safety
My advice would be not to worry too much about being original - just start by writing and enjoy yourself. If you write a plot that's been used a million times, but write it well, it can still be an excellent story.
Check out this thread here: http://z13.invisionfree.com/Castle_Worl ... wtopic=982
A looot of stories are the same-old-same-old... but if the writing is good, and the action/characters around the plot is good, you can still go somewhere there.
