I need some guidance please. I'm a "long time reader, first time author,"
and I have a story for archive consideration.
It's in MS-Word (.doc) and is formatted according to the posted
instructions. The length is 26 pages.
My question: what are the recommended email procedures? Ex:
do I attach all 26 pages to an email? Do I make two (or more) "parts"
for smaller attachments? Or, do I send the entire story in one email
(no attachments)?
I will appreciate any/all guidance and will follow such accordingly.
Thank you! "New Author"

Hey Sundowner,
Sending me your story in .doc format is perfect. 26 pages is not too long at all. Just fine actually.
If you want to break the story up into different parts, that is fine too. Entirely up to you, and how you want the story read.
Please, if you can, don't use indents at the beginning of paragraphs, Do not double space between paragraphs. Just hit return ONCE and that is all. I have to manually remove all blank lines between paragraphs, so I would prefer if they were not there in the first place.
Be sure to run your spell-checker. Heck, run it twice. The easier it is to read, the better for everyone.
Be sure to include the story tags you want associated with the story. Your options are;
Nullification:
General Warning:
Penectomy:
Minor:
Gay:
Bi:
Testicles:
Straight:
TG:
You also have 4 custom tags you can create, like; Clitorectomy, S&M, Slavery, whatever...
Also be sure to include a brief description of your story. Something a few sentences long that might make someone want to read your writing.
Send your completed work of art to me at eafictionarchive (at) gmail (dot) com. I'll get it up on the archive as soon as I have time. Which will be very soon.
I'm looking forward to reading your entry. I am sure everyone else will be happy to read it too.
