vwl Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 I have always liked What Makes a Family despite the slowness of updates and the need for an editor. What is refreshing is the plot, which has a theme oriented to thinking adults and is mostly absent of clichés. According to the author, the conclusion is in sight. The story is at http://www.nifty.org...makes-a-family/ Quote Link to comment
Chris James Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 I found the story interesting, but how can any author expect his readers to wait three or four years for a conclusion? On the Nifty pages that means a story will get lost in the haystack. Sorry to say, I can't read anymore. Quote Link to comment
vwl Posted March 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 One of the purposes of First Alert is to encourage, cajole, threaten the authors to finish their stories. With enough outside pressure, particularly in praise, the author may get the motivation he or she needs. So, I ask everyone using this forum to take the time to send the authors a note or two.
