    Poetry question

    I have, from other sites, a large document of my previous poetry work. Now, I'd like to share it with you all, but I don't know if I should post it as one thread title "Niklas' Poetry Thread", or make individual posts (spaced out over time so they don't seem to overcrowd the poetry section.)

    What do you think I should do?

    Creating a single thread with many poems would be inconvenient to readers. It is best if you make individual posts over a space of time.
    If you read the rules, you'd find this in the guidelines:
    Forum Flooding: Don't flood the forums with new submissions. We realize you are eager to share your writing, but please add your work at a reasonable pace. Any posts over two on any particular board in one day may be deleted.

    Thank you for clearing that for me. I'll go with the posting over time option.

    This is usually the best option, it gives people time to comment on your work, and gives you time to do the same.

    I'm also a Mentor. What does that mean? It means if you have any questions, all you have to do is ask me. My job is to help you feel comfortable here. (The mods' job is to take away cookies as punishment. Twisted fiends.)
