Welcome
Welcome to Every Day Novels. We’re delighted to have you join us.
One of the best facets of online publishing is its interactivity. We welcome and encourage your participation, both by commenting on the chapters as they are released and by joining discussions on our forums.
Guidelines for Commenting on Novel Chapters
Every Day Novels is the imprint of a publishing house, not a workshopping/critique site. We allow reader comments on the novels, just as Every Day Fiction allows comments on its stories and Every Day Poets allows comments on its poems, because most of our readers and authors have indicated that they would be in favour of it.
We don’t expect everyone to like every word we publish, and subscribers are welcome to comment regardless of whether you liked the chapter at hand or the novel as a whole — differing opinions are a given, and criticism is welcome, but please keep all comments courteous and respectful. We do not tolerate abuse. The comments are NOT intended as a place for gratuitous cruelty and hurtful put-downs, and while we don’t like to censor anyone, we find ourselves occasionally forced to delete mean-spirited remarks that cross boundaries of respect and common courtesy. People who abuse the privilege of commenting can and will have their nasty comments removed (and, if necessary, their subscriber privileges revoked). Fortunately, the vast majority of our commenters are helpful and supportive even when delivering a less-than-glowing opinion, and we value that.
Please keep chapter comments focused on the novel in question. General public comments for Every Day Novels should be directed to our Letters to the Publisher and Suggestion Box forum. Other discussions that segue away from the novel can also be transferred to the forums to be debated in full.
