Six Word Stories ...
The community was created as an offshoot of the old SWS. It's this mod's opinion that people should be able to play here without fear of harassment or exposure to toxic individuals.
Players with a history of such behavior in DWRP will not be tolerated. Purveyors of organical milk and long pork need not apply.
What is Six Word Stories?
Taken from the old LJ SWS:
It is inspiration and exploration and creation. It is what you make it, so long as you make it six words.
Do:
Write a story in six words.
Keep explicit content beneath a cut.
Be kind to your fellow players.
Use the tags!
Keep recent spoilers beneath a cut!
Don't
Don't use more than six words.
Don't use titles. There's no need.
Don't spam the community, it is annoying.
Don't introduce yourself. Just start writing.
Don't use real-life tragedies as rp fodder.
Don't use your character as a mouthpiece for political, religious, or personal beliefs. Posts that break this rule may be deleted without warning.
Don't harass players. We ban for that.
Clarifications...
01. Each entry/post you make into![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
six_word_stories should contain, in it's entirety, exactly six words, strike outs included. If you go over the limit, you will be asked to edit the post. After an appropriate amount of time, if it is not corrected, the post will be deleted.
02. Your post should contain one story and one story only. if you have more than one story to share, by all means, make another post.
03. OOC information should not be displayed in titles. This means you should not put anything in the subject line of your story.
If you wish to clarify AUs you may use the Location and Music tabs within reason. You may also write it in a cut.
Ex: *cut text=“AU type/This is totally meta/Locked From”*
Ideally your cut will also only be six words, but shorter cuts are fine, just don't go over six words.
“my AU=I am writing six more words” is an eight word post, and would not be acceptable.
04. Fandom and original characters are welcome as well as encouraged, muse interaction drives this community.
05. Do not flood the community. Try to at least wait for your previous post to clear the community's front page before you post again. Yes, we do encourage you to post multiple times, but this does not mean for you to post 2-6 or more times in a single hour. Be aware that you are not the only poster in this community. Everyone here has a story to share, and everyone here should have the chance to share it. Flooding the community will often hide these posts, and can cause a great deal of upset for other community members. Treat others as you would care to be treated.
06. Don't try to get around #5 by deleting your post and reposting it. If you're frustrated by a lack of interest, try a different prompt, tag others' posts, or network OOCly with other players.
07. Have fun, avoid fights. It's simple. If, for any reason, you do have a problem with a post or player that is clearly breaking the rules, please notify the mods immediately here. The inbox will be checked regularly for questions, problems, inquiries etc. Any post that is reported and is subsequently found to be causing harassment or in violation of DW policies will be deleted without warning.
Characters or players that are continually brought to our attention will be asked to cease posting or find another home.

SWS will be maintaining a list of canon tags and meta tags!
