Hello, I am ForbiddenPlanetWeekly, you know my bros at ForbiddenPlanet right? Well my account is a parallel to FP, our goal being to update a new story on a specific day of the week. So Story X gets updated every Monday until it finishes. So if you have a story you'd like to submit then do it! I'd love to read them and see them posted, the idea is that we'll get a huge fanbase and let worthy high class stories make it to the front page and take it back from the crap! |

@FPWeekly Why not do weekly short story aswell? As long as you have any that is. Mabye like an FP collection that just builds up over a few months with stories from the fans? And why not throw in a couple of poems aswell. |

@FPWeekly Sounds like a pretty good idea. |

@TheRobot well that's the idea. Imagine a TV channel, the channel owners don't do the acting or production they just manage everything. It is you the community that will provide the stories. It is my hope that we'll get lots of fans and readers so a story that would normally get 1,000 reads and less than ten comments now gets 100,000 reads and thousands of comments! An alliance of powerful pieces of fiction. I thought the ForbiddenPlanet community with his Sci-Fi smackdowns would be the best place to start. |

@FPWeekly I have to agree with John above me, this sounds like a good idea. I'd like to see some sci-fi getting that many reads, and this might be the perfect thing to help that happen. |

I don't really have any applicable stories for Scifi that need reads other than P.I.E, and I really don't need to promote it. But if I decide to write another Scifi I'll play. |

Besides, I have written no sci-fi but my smackdown entries. Speaking of which, I'd better get to that round 2... |

@FPWeekly Sounds good though. But I'm confused, you have a longer story that is updated every week and a short story? Or both? And this long story is written by different writers? Or just one? |

From what I gather, 'tis still in the planning stages that bit... but from what I understand there'll be six stories from select writers, updated on a weekly basis on a given day... |
