A long time ago I promised /lit/ that I would have an FTP server.

Failing on my part to do that (due to an insufficient Internet connection), I present to you, /lit/erates, a much much much better FTP server than I could ever provide.

The awesome part about this is that, knowing what junkies we all are for the printed (or rather electronically displayed) word we all are, this gives us an opportunity to share all of our favorite novels/short stories/essays/plays/etc. with one another. We can post our uploads and discuss them.

Here's what you need to know:
