Writers group and a fic

Okay guys my online writers group is looking for new members (and I'm hoping for genre writers personally) It's designed for original fiction only short stories, novels and poems (though most of us suck at critiquing poetry). What would be involved is once every 6 weeks (or thereabouts) you have to hand us some new fic (there is a limit of 5000 words I believe because lately a couple people were tossing off 100 pages at a time) AND critique all of the other fic too. What do I mean by that? Well flow of story, pacing, characterization and/or line edits for word choice, punctuation and spelling. On one hand there is a fair hunk of reading to be done but on the other, it's not really that bad. If you're interested, email me and I'll put you in touch with our leader.

And since I ended up joing another Fullmetal Alchemist community specific for the pairing of that story I just posted here a few days okay, I ended up reordering it so it's easier to read. if you're curious head here Why They Call It Falling

I would love to do this, the only prob is, I'm not producing at the moment. I want to start producing original fic, I'm working on it, but nothing I'm ready to turn over to concrit.

Sounds like a great group, though, and something I might want to do in the future.

we always have a turn over rate. When you're ready, poke me and let me know. And you aren't the only one who wants to do original fic. Once again after Nano I've done squat

I want to do original fic but ironically I have no good ideas! I think I will start with original fic drabbles/flash-fiction just to get the juices flowing.

You know any good places for genre writing prompts?
