WEbook looks interesting.  It might help getting research and riticism for my book and stories coming up.  Oh and I agree to the writer's group.
What would you do if you had six hours of humanity left?

Ok, so it looks like there is at least some desire on this.  Now, as far as WEbook, I saw that recently too, and it gives me the heeby-jeebies.  It's a publishing company.  That doesn't mean it's bad, but I'd like to get some other opinions first too.

Here's a link to their faq (specifically the rights section):

Here's a popular online site for this sort of thing.  LOTS of people and submissions:

Here's one for pay (why use with Critters around?):

Or we could always restart something like Cogni.  I'd be willing to set it up as a public site.  We have lots of options.

Side note: here is a new Fantasy writer's social network.  Don't know how worthwhile it is:
