(Elaborating a little more because I was writing a reply and didn't want to ditch it.)

The point I was making before is that these projects don't really evolve into each other. They pop up more or less oblivious of earlier work, suffer in similar ways, and then fail in similar ways. That's not to say that there aren't interesting things gained each time, but it'd be better if something was learned and improved on.

The other anon was right for suggesting that they should reach a point where they consider it complete and move on, though I don't consider it a failure for people to reach that point unexpectedly. I don't think /lit/ can sustain an actual quality literary journal all on its own with a regular schedule, and anything that relies on resources (writing, editing) from outside of /lit/ ends up losing its soul.

Thanks, I missed that last line, though he does specifically bill it as /ffa/ in the OP. These projects tend to switch hands fairly often, so do you have a link to where the original editor signalled the end? I'm looking at >>20635964.

Nah. I'd rather focus on my own writing and get involved in more tangible projects in real life. I think /lit/ projects are cool, but I'd rather work on a project with people whose writing I know and already have some respect for.

There's fun in submitting to and reading a /lit/ project with the board as context, but the writing quality will never be consistent and will most often be mediocre. They're good places to practice, improve a little, and have fun, but they level off pretty quick.
