Game Journal - This type is made by a player of an actual table top (or PbP) game who is chronicling their character's adventures from the perspective of the character.2. Game Account - This type can be from a player's or a DM's hand, but it is usually from a more omniscient point of view.  It recounts an actual game being played.3. Fictional Story - This is the product of an ENWorlder's mind.  Someone above said that they are rare, and they are. Although, there are a coupld of well liked ones going by some pretty good authors.There is no set rule to what Story Hour contributions have to follow.  It's a place to tell a story.  Some people like to read decent free fiction, so they go there looking for the fiction tag.  Some people can't get enough superhero tales (since there isn't a ton of superhero fiction out there) so they get what they can out of the Story Hour forum.  Most often, people visit the Story Hour Forum looking for a game like the one they are playing and mine it for ideas.  That would be the most productive use of the forum - although there is nothing wrong with kicking back and enjoying a great read!If you're looking for fiction, I will say that I am one of the "rare" - as stated earlier in the thread - fiction writers.  You can see the link in my sig.  One Story Hour {Bitterness Overcome} is a complete Story of ~180,000 words.  The second Story Hour {Into the Moral Darkness} is a little more than 3/4 finished and it should reach its conclusion sometime in September.  If you are looking for fiction, feel free to give them a read, and maybe even a comment or two!</blockquote>
