TheLongSleep

r/thelongsleep

TheLongSleep is a place for authors to share their original fiction stories that don't already fit into either /r/nosleep, /r/cryosleep, or /r/sleepspell. Unlike nosleep (but like cryosleep and sleepspell), it's not necessary to treat stories on thelongsleep as though they are true. We do ask that you treat each other with respect and keep major critiques to one of the many workshop subreddits. Happy reading/writing!

####Posting Rules####

Only post your original stories. Plagiarism or band-wagoning another writer’s story are against the rules. Even if you are the original author of a story found elsewhere on the internet, the post runs the risk of removal if you cannot prove this to the moderators. This is to protect the intellectual property of the writers.

Posts that are not stories need to be tagged as [META].

Series posts must be tagged as Title [Part XX]. Also, at the top of your post, please link to all previous parts of the story. At the bottom of your post, please link to all subsequent parts.

Graphic content must be marked with a Trigger Warning (NSFW).

Flair is highly encouraged and will probably get you the audience you want. If you write a mystery, use the mystery flair. If you write a comedy, flair it as comedy. You don't want someone who's looking for a romance to downvote your action story because it's not what they're looking for.

You may only post once every 24 hours. This goes for one-post stories as well as series posts.
