Authonomy, a new speculative fiction writing community
I heard of this HarperCollins site today and went and had a look and am really excited about the concepts behind it.

Authonomy

I am already in Critmonsters, the CSFG crit group and the Online Writers Workshop. The first two of these are only really useful for short fiction and the OWW has significant overheads in terms of time and money.

I was wondering if anybody else on my flist has looked at this site and heard anything, either good or bad, about it.

To me it seems like a win win situation for all concerned and a resource that many different people from all areas of the writing/publishing industry could make use of.

Or am I just being naive?

Oh, and yes, I have put up some of my own work, and will be providing feedback for other authors. If you're interesting in reading the prologue and first two chapters of my own main work in progress click on the following link.

Engelian Adventures: Transgressions

Any comments and feedback gratefully accepted.

Addendum: If you got here through the Australian Speculative Fiction Blog Carnival, I am currently writing a series of articles on my experience on Authonomy on the 'A Boy Goes On A Journey' website. If you're interested, you can follow this up here
