   I'm just throwing it out there, but I kinda think a sort of sister-site with fiction (short-stories, poems, etc) would be a neat idea.

      I've been trying for two years to get HP to put together a QUALITY fiction section.  With Kindle and Ipad and all the writer-friendly aps for cheap publication, and with the writer lure that HP has, it could be awesome and popular.

      Not like they don't have all the talent they need in every aspect of it right here already. All the technical people, all the literary qualifications, etc.
      
      I'd even run it for them if they'd respond to my suggestions in these threads or the two or three emails I've sent.  Eventually they'll see it, or someone else will see it and, with a little "re-invention of the wheel" pull the creative writers off.

         Well, I'm glad someone agrees with me. I think a fiction section would be a great addition, since I know personally, I love writing, but articles and I don't get along.
         
         I know I'd be much more active if I could post some of my short stories, or poems.

            You can still post your stories and poems - a lot of writers here do.

               the key word in this thread is "quality." This site is designed for non-fiction articles. While you can post short stories and poems, it's not exactly supported by any means, and that's what I'm suggesting.

         So, do you think if we get enough people talkingabout it, that it could happen?

   A fiction and poetry sub section would be terrific

   Alright, so we have three people agreeing... That's a start
