#Writing Posts

Posts (articles) are the heart of Fiction Factory. Here's how to write, publish, and manage yours.

#Creating a post

1. Click Write in the top navigation bar.
2. Give your post a title — make it clear and specific.
3. Write the content. You can add headings, images, and formatting.
4. Choose a category so readers can find it.
5. Set a featured image if you have one.
6. Click Publish.

Your post is live immediately and appears on the homepage and in All Posts.

Note on approvals: posts are published instantly. We only moderate for spam — promotional or SEO-bait titles/content may be hidden automatically.

#Editing a post

• Go to My Posts, find your post, and click Edit.
• Make your changes and save.
• You can also delete a post from the same screen.

#Writing tips that help you earn

• Original work gets upvoted — and upvotes earn you points (see Voting).
• A good featured image makes your post stand out in listings.
• Clear titles get more views; views count toward achievements like Widely Read and Viral Sensation.
• Write consistently — comment and engage, and the community will find you.

#Post visibility

• Your post appears in My Posts immediately.
• Public readers see it on the homepage, All Posts, and its category.
• If a post is flagged as spam (by the automatic checker or by readers), it is hidden from the public — but you can still view your own post to fix it.

#Sharing your post

Each post has a unique URL like /posts/42. Share it anywhere. When you reference another post in a comment, you can link it with /posts/42 — it renders as a clean clickable link automatically.
