Archive for the 'Check-In with Fictionaut Groups' Category
Groups on Fictionaut are typically used to collect themed works. But Ben Matvey has created a group as a place to keep each chapter of X, A Novel, which he is serially posting. It’s been getting great reviews, and I find myself looking forward to each new installment. While Fictionauters often seem to prefer flash […]

We try to blend the traditional with the new.

Artists are citizens as surely as they are human beings. We have responsibilities to society… and in a democracy such as ours, if we choose not to get involved, then we may wake up to find ourselves in a world where there is no freedom with which to pursue our art.
