WikiAnswers

As some of you know, I’m also an Answers.com supervisor, over at WikiAnswers.com. My categories include “Learning Tips and Study Habits,” “Idioms and Slang,” and — of course! — “Creative Writing.” The latter also includes sub-categories such as Fiction Writing; Fan Fiction; Characters and Dialogue; Plot and Setting, Style, Mood, and Tone; and Narrative Viewpoint.

Here’s my profile – you can check out my qualifications, read some of my previous answers, and see a few of the awards I’ve accumulated over the years as a supervisor. I’m particularly proud of my “WAmmy” awards – WikiAnswers that have been voted particularly helpful. You can probably tell that I like the Answerthons, too, though I haven’t had the time to compete since I started writing professionally.

WikiAnswers is a fun site. Not only can you find the answer to whatever you want to know, but you can just browse the site for fun questions, additional information, or just see what pops up that strikes your interest. I like to scroll through my categories periodically to see what sorts of questions have been asked and answered. Sometimes, I add my own remarks. I also like to try to personally answer anything that’s been sitting there for a few months, because I know how frustrating it is to have a question and not be able to find an answer anywhere.

You can get started on the site here – it’s a walk-through guideline – or you can just pop in and start asking and answering.
