Submit to the Writer's Pad
Well, this is your chance to submit original fiction of your own to wotmania. There are thousands and thousands of readers visiting wotmania each and every day, so your story will probably get read many times by readers who are always hungry for something new and interesting to read. To keep order, maintain quality, and ensure that everything suits the community atmosphere of wotmania as a whole, there are a few guidelines...
- Original Work Only
This should more or less go without saying, but you can only submit work that is of your own creation. Seriously, if you didn't write it then you shouldn't be submitting it to the Writer's Pad.
- Fiction Only
Unlike the Fiction Post in the Other Fantasy section, people are free to submit fiction that isn't fantasy - mysteries, spy stories, poems about whatever... The only thing I would like to see is to keep everything here fictional.
- Quality
There will be standards regarding what gets posted and what does not get posted, and if your fiction doesn't meet those standards it will not be posted. That means your submission needs to be free of spelling and grammatical errors, because the admins here have better things to do than spend an hour cleaning up your two page short story. Got it? Good deal. 
- Appropriate Content
wotmania is a site that is geared toward people of all ages and beliefs. The admins will review each and every piece of fiction submitted to ensure that it is not offensive. This is not to say that everything here has to be G-rated, but including something in your writing that most people would deem offensive is a pretty sure way to keep it out of the Writer's Pad. Explicit sexual content will prevent your fiction from being posted.
- Formatting
Please do the admins a favor and put a full line break between paragraphs instead of just starting a new line and indenting. Indenting doesn't work online and it makes the admins' lives miserable. Hit "Enter" an extra time and it will help the admins get your work posted more quickly.
- Be Patient
The admins who work on wotmania do actually have lives outside this site. Sometimes they can't get things posted as quickly as you (or they themselves) would like. Do not send obnoxious e-mails asking where your fiction is, because that's the single best way to ensure that it never gets posted.
Submit Now
With that out of the way, now it's time to get on with actually submitting your writing, right? I would say the best way to do this would probably be writing your work in a text editor or word processor of some kind and then you could simply paste the text into the box below. Please keep in mind that required fields are marked in red.
