Good idea about the version history. You beat me to it, as I don't yet have a version 0.1 That will only be after I finish the actual story
Are you kidding? I was actually looking forward to reading yours.

Thanks for setting that up. Do you think it needs "SPOILERS" in the thread title?

Also, did we clarify whether it's OK to use the actual story titles in the discussion thread? I think earlier I was concerned that this would be seen as self-promotion, but really I suppose that if it's acceptable to be discussing the stories in a thread about the anthology then using the actual titles doesn't add any more self-promotion (and will be a lot clearer when reviewing).

Title made a bit more prominent, to set it off from the Discussion thread.

Is there any limit on genre or are stories supposed to be written to conform to a common theme of any sort? I'm just curious at the moment as I don't have anything written as yet.

No limits other than the ones in the first post.

Only take care not to write anything extremely over the top violent, racist, pornographic... That sort of stuff.

Is there an update on what has been accepted (if any), and on where the anthology is at this moment?

That probably explains why only the writers have been participating - no public links!

Katsunami has set up a place where we've been placing stories - and only five have joined in so far. I'm not familiar with DropBox (I only joined to participate in this) so not sure if you can share whole folders - and I imagine it will be up to Katsunami to share it.

I think we felt that we didn't want to share the draft versions publicly. However, if someone specifically wanted to follow along I'd be happy with Katsunami granting them (read only) access to the Dropbox folder.
