Library

Site Update



All literary folks rejoice, the Library has been opened!



The building has been in disarray for a long time, preventing players from submitting Aywas-related stories and getting them published. It was planned to be one of our main features and we're glad we finally have it functional.



How it works:

Write a story (after reading the Knowledge Base for the rules), submit your story, and if it is accepted, it will be turned into a readable item on Aywas.

Your story can be read through the Library's reading feature and players can restock your book in the Little Book Store. For every sale made, you get a royalty, ensuring you small but reoccurring funds over your time on Aywas.

Enjoy!

Although... is there any chance that the limit could be upped to 1oK?
2.5k seems really low... even for a short story. ^^;;

Do we get to decide what the cost/rarity of the book is, or is it the same for all volumes? ^_^

I absolutely LOVE this. It's really nice to not only see a proper new feature on Aywas, but also something that encourages writing AND reading. Fantastic!! -- Imay

will there be notes on submissions that are denied, like a "fix this and resubmit and it will be good to go" sort of deals? I just submitted a story and noticed a misspelling afterward (i swear i read throuhg it all like six times ok i could recite the darn thing in my sleep at this point), and i'd like to know how that sort of denial and resubmission should go about. :o

update: mine was denied, and i think we should get a lil message saying why it was denied. you guys could have like four options to checkmark when denying like 1) too short/too long 2) breaks tos 3) spelling/grammar errors 4) undesired storyline, to make it easier for you guys while still giving feedback as to whether or not a resubmission should be attempted. (just trying to help out, ahh)

What does "unnecessary speaking verbs" refer to in the knowledge base article?

Also I agree that 2.5k seems very low. Maybe not 10k like Lunakiri suggested (though I'd certainly not be opposed to it myself!), but what about 5k perhaps? That leaves a little more room for characterization and detail while still having a complex plot.
