PurpleYouko:
F you want to post a chapter or two, I can host them for you at my Story Sanctum website. I have a few short stories of my own up there already.
if anybody else fancies themself as an author, just let me know and I will put yours up too.

Numsgil:
The only problem is that posting manuscripts or parts of manuscripts in any sort of public arena really messes up trying to get something published.  (Most publishers will take it as already published, even if you just post in on your personal site for family to read).

PurpleYouko:
That depends a lot on the copyright laws in the country in which you are trying to get it published. The Story Sanctum (in its present incarnation) will not specifically retain the rights to publishing the works and if necessary, a letter to a prospective publisher can be provided in which The Story Sanctum relinquishes all rights to a specific work

Besides which, at some point I intend to take the story sanctum to a new level and actually begin to publish stuff properly as both e-books and as regular books on a print to order basis. (online sales only at this stage)
(At this point then a different set of rules will obviously apply.)

The trouble is that I am not able to start anything as an official business for at least a couple more years due to my immigration visa status. Basically I'm not allowed to work for anybody except the company that sponsored my H1-B visa application until I get my permanent residency visa.

Numsgil:
It's not a copy right issue... I'm having a hard time explaining it.  Basically publishers don't want sloppy seconds

Endy:
I'm kind of curious what would happen if we could combine DB's concept of behavioral mutation of simplified code, with a real virus. I think the whole system would be more self-stablizing then people believe. It'd actually probably make the net more stable, since it'd be in alife's best interest to make sure it stays up.
