I really like that this site is so responsive to the community here, and open to new ideas. Bravo, Lush.
I think it's weird you can't write about living famous people, if it is clearly labeled as fiction. Seems like that should be protected (you can write satire about living famous people, why not sex?). I know nothing about the law involved, though.

Okay so what about a story where Joan of Arc travels through a worm hole in the back of a church and ends up in 2015. The story would be about her, a historic figure and not really about the time machine... We'll just call the wormhole a miracle. By the power of a miracle she travels through time.
Or better yet how about Joan of Arc uses miraculous time travel to see where she will be captured by the english and avoids burning at the stake and instead goes and loses her virginity somewhere? Would this story go under Historic? Or would that now be fantasy?
Remember that the category is Fantasy & Sci-Fi. Not just Sci-fi. Or would miracles be considered supernatural? Because that's a category too.
A writer could argue that if a modern day person traveling back in time counts as historic than a historical figure traveling to our time should count too if the main character is the historic figure.

More like a Historical Fiction with a "Time Travel" tag.

A little bit away from categories, and more so to the formatting side of things, which has also been discussed within this forum. I think that love stories, being more so about love then sex (or so I would assume) should allow for no sex. We already have "love poems" and that doesn't require to have sex in it, so why should love stories? I emphasis this further if its a story of several parts. Not all parts need to have sex. Especially if you're trying to build up the connection, love between two characters. Why would you even read a love story in the first place if you only cared about the sex? Now I know that one may say, just refer it to "novels" if its going to be long winded, but theres plenty of other multi-part stories in all other categories that are not shafted off, and lets face it, novels is one of the least read categories, and thats not fair for those who care about votes etc etc.

Finally, could we perhaps be able to organise the stories on our profile better, as a reader (more so than a writer) it gets annoying trying to find a next part, or the part I was up to when its categorised in a completely different genre. On top of this I'm sure others would like to be able to organise their "series" or "charactors" per e.g sprites "blondie" tales.

No, not a party pooper, just telling a doofus here, who was too tired to think clearly at the time I typed it, where the flaw lies in that idea.![]()

I like the way the Spanish speakers do that, and that most of their children have two last names: one from their father and one from their mother instead of only the father's last name. It just makes sense.
Purple, I think the full stop after Mr and Mrs is dwindling these days but either way is acceptable.
