Anyone want to read a serial novel?

Hello everyone,

I have been inspired to take pen to paper and write a railfan adventure story. When I get it done, would there be any interest to having it serielized here on the forum.

Let me know what you think.

No, thanks. Literary fiction is not why I joined this forum. I get plenty of that on my book review website. The NES thread was mecifully closed and I'm not looking forward to a forum of more literary endeavors.

Why not host it yourself using your own resources and post a link to it?

Being easy for you doesn't make it appropriate for "The forum for scale model railroading."

Maybe I'm wrong. Just like you, I'm new here too. Ask the moderator if there is an appropriate forum for it.

I don;t know aboout anyone else. But I find scale model railroading to be the forum for reflections of daily life. So if this is the forum for Model Railroading....... well I will let you continue on the deep thinking. I think I am going to call it a night.

No deep thinking involved. This isn't the Railroad Fiction forum.

You asked for comments. Do whatever you want. If the moderator wants to host your novel, so be it.

No thank you.

And no more "Never Ending Story" either, please. The moderators of the forum killed it. Let it rest in peace.

James isn't new, he's just come back under a different name to disafilliate himself with UP.

Aggro is right. I have been here about a year. Its just I was in the Union Pacific Camp and no longer wanted to be. So I made a new name.

Go ahead, James, I enjoy adventure storys, especially when trains are involved. All you "fun suckers" can just ignore the thread.
