As you may have noticed, this software is starting to show cracks in the presentation. So, due to "reasons", we'll be moving to something else.

In other news, we have now grown our congregation of ROBOgators and our bask of cROBOdiles out so that bad robots that come here and try to vacuum up the content will be eaten.
Don't worry - you meat people are safe unless you go poking around in places you're not supposed to go.

. . . and finally! I am introducing "the bookshelf"!

You can find it at https://stories.novarata.net/shelf/ and it should be easier to read (stories in chronological order, instead of newest first)

I started this website so budding authors (amateur or pending professionals) could have a place to share their stories and prove "first published" copyright date.

An amateur author friend of mine contacted me a while ago and linked me to some various websites set up to host amateur author's stories.

What she was concerned with was the predatory terms of service on some of them. Some of which went like this: "by hosting your content here, you license us the ability to use the content as we desire, including the ability to sub-license the content to third parties to use as they like".
