Hi @adamsmats. Thanks again for publishing in The Ink Well. Since you are new to our community, I thought I would share some tips and resources to help you get to know the community and our rules.
New Year.As @theinkwell mentioned, we don't curate stories that cross-posted. In fact, we do not accept stories that are published elsewhere in any form. You can see this stated in our rules. Please be sure to read them carefully. You can find them at the top of the community home page. We also provide a link to a text version of the rules, as well as information about our community and rewards in all of our prompt posts. Please check out this week's prompt post,
Additionally, we provide tons of articles to help writers flourish and improve their writing craft. You can find them in our Catalog of Fiction Writing Tips. In particular, you might like the article titled Action, Dialog and Narrative: The Dynamic Trio.
Keep writing! We look forward to reading more of your work.
