A subreddit for writers and aspiring writers. A great place to share tips, news, and interact with thousands of other writers.

I would not recommend posting here for critiques, however, as that may preclude your work from being publishable elsewhere (by appearing on a public forum, some publishers would consider it previously published work).

This is the host we use. We’ve experienced excellent service so far.

Their uptime and performance is as promised, and full-month refunds were given to us on occasions when performance was compromised. Their tech-support has saved us from potential headaches on many occasions, and they’ve been quick to respond every time.

The only drawback: their prices are somewhat on the higher end of the spectrum. But we’ve found their service worth the extra buck.

PRICE: starting at $12.82/month

Description: Robert Browning’s The Ring and the Book has been hailed by critics and readers alike as one of the masterpieces of English literature, a triumph of dramatic poetry. Though in his lifetime it quickly became his best-selling work, in the 20th century the book lost readership and, sadly, did not become the widely-known classic it once showed promise of becoming.

Centered around the scene of a murder trial, the story of The Ring and the Book is narrated in the form of multi-character monologues. The ambitious 21,000 line poem is sure to captivate today’s reader just as much as its unconventional form surprised those who first rummaged through its pages back in 1868.

ISFN’s Classics Again series hopes to bring great books that have been undeservedly forgotten back into the spotlight. We are delighted to have the opportunity to present you with a work that might have otherwise eluded your notice.
