Okay, I'm the stupid Newbie: Officially Confused.

Yeah. Well. I'm confused.
Okay, this is a really dumb question but:
When you want others to read your story, do you put it on a thread like this (Thank Gosh I'm Smart enough to know how to do this!) Or do you go to the top where it says submit and do that whole process?
And, when I do eventually find out how to navigate my way around: Do you post one big story, chapters all in one post, or can you post it seperately, like in chapters in each individual post?

To submit a book, click the Submit link

ALSO if your book doesnt have 10,000 words, it wont show up. If you dont, post it as a short story for now.

I think letter C is the way to go!! Go around, reading and giving good comments, and people will return the favor in a heartbeat!

Well what you do is you click "Submit" follow the steps, you want to separate your novel into chapters, so one word document will be only Chapter One, another word document will be only Chapter Two and so on. If all of these chapters are for the same book, you'll submit them all together. It sounds confusing now, but when you look at "submit" you'll find it easier. That's how you create a project. And when you want someone to find your project, just search around the forums and make a thread saying "Hey, read my book?" people like to do "swaps" which is where you read their book and they'll read yours.
