As you know, I used to post a story on Eurobricks, but I have learned that it is not something for the site.

So I started trying to find sites for writing stories, but I can't find any that suits my expectations:

1) Suitible for young adults (A little "wilder" than Hunger Games,PG-13 level)

2) Having a Eurobricks fellow member also writing on the site

3) Min. amounts of ads.

4) A site that alot of people have heard of.

5) A site like Eurobricks, but for stories.

6) Rookie-friendly, the members needs to be friendly to rookies/non-native English speakers.

7) Can be updated, I don't want to submit 100 pages of stuff in one upload.

8) A forum which people can send C&Os publicly.

Are there any sugestions?

EDIT: Thank you, I have now started my story at Booksies.

There is a place for story telling here. Head HERE. It's kept in the section above Eurobricks Community sub folder. Under Special Interests

I believe bionicle factory is referring to prose fiction as opposed to the pictorial or graphic storytelling that is done in the Brick Flicks subforum.

I can't think of any sites that fulfill all of your expectations. What I would suggest is that you look for a site that features fan-fiction from a series (of books, movies, TV show or what-have-you) that you like, and start from there. If you start out writing within that fandom, it's good practice for writing in your own setting, and you will pick up readers from that fandom who may follow you in your own stuff. And writing within a given fandom, with preexisting characters and canon, can allow you to focus on honing your writing skills without having to invent everything yourself. The fan-fic communities tend to be very supportive of fellow members and may be more forgiving of "newbie" techniques than most of the more professional fiction sites, and most of them do have sections for "non-fandom" fiction.

If you can't find a good website, do your writing at home and show it to everyone you know. I actually recommend this to anyone who's interested in writing at all. It takes a lot of practice before you're really "ready for prime time". Think of writing like MOCing. As a beginner in the Lego world, I know that my own MOCs are fun for me to make, and they might impress my kids, but there is no way I'd start out by submitting them to Eurobricks because, well, seriously, LOOK at the stuff that's up here! My stuff would just get ignored and fall off the Active Content pages as soon as one of the serious MOCers posted a new castle.

Keeping all this in mind, I can give you one address: www.everything2.com. This is a site that I got a lot of practice on, but it doesn't quite meet all your criteria. It's a small community, it's open to all ages but doesn't have a lot of Young Adult stuff, and it's not always tolerant of bad grammar or novice writing. The people there are used to a certain level of writing. But it is a good community where you can post literally any kind of writing you want, communicate with other people who like writing, and sometimes get good comments on your stories. Just be prepared - it's a tough crowd. And the Web design was literally groundbreaking back in the day, but has not evolved much in the last ten years, so the interface looks terrible.

Yeah, my story actually started "spreading" a few years ago when I shared it in class, and everybody sugeested me to do it on the web.

Any way, thanks for the website.
