Please help me, I'm new

[A BAND APART]

I just joined up here, and would like to write my first story. I have posted some stories to some message boards before. Thats where I'm confused. Can I just type my story in the box, or do I have to do something else? I am not familiar with all the options it gives. Please help me, I'm really excited to get the opportunity for others to read my work! Thanks in advance.

Write your story in MS Word, Wordperfect, MS Works, or whtever word processor you may have.

Spell check and proofread it for typos, misspellings, misused words, and overall readability.

When you are ready to submit your story:

Open the story in your word processor

Go to the submission form.

Fill out the title, keywords, and other information requested.

In your word processor, Select all (Control A in most word processors.) and copy (Ctrl-C) the text to the clipboard.

In the text box of the submission page, paste the text from the clipboard (Ctrl-V).

Preview your story to make sure there are no extraneous paragraph breaks or strange characters.

Click on submit.

Voila! You're an author!
