Storystar is a totally FREE site featuring one of the world's largest collections of short stories written by writers of all ages around the world.
StoryStar was the creation of Julie Larsen, who tirelessly gave of her time and finances to create this haven where authors worldwide could publish and have their stories read. We will continue her legacy that she never be forgotten.
I am preparing the StoryStar app for distribution on the Google Play Store.
I need a dozen people with android devices to test the app before they will release it.
Anyone that is interested in helping test the app, please let me know with the Contact Us link at the bottom of the page.
The September Contest prompt has also been completed.
A letter (or a message) arrives. Who is is from? How does it affect your characters?
