I tried to upload a file for consideration, but it was not accepted because I didn't specify a section; but there are no section choices. Rather a Catch 22, don't you think? Makes it impossible to upload a file to the Writer's Freestuff section. Please help. Thank you.

P.S. Suggested sections for Writer's Freestuff might be: Prose Poetry Nonfiction Newsletter Guides etc. It wouldn't be the same as for software.

Hi dialyn, I know that Crescent has been talking about this with the Admins, but not sure what the outcome was. I do know that Cres is working hard on making sure that all the extra Rosity Goodies will be available to the Writer's Community :) ladynimue

i'll pass it on to the programmers and see if we can get a writers freebie section going :)

Very cool...even if you only added one section as a redundancy, that would allow the system to work. Now I have to reduce my fat file down to something downloadable. I can't believe how long it took to upload it to the File Locker. :(

Good job. I just uploaded....no problems. Now maybe we can get some other free stuff in there. Like the infamous writer's block. ;)
