Welcome to Woefully Unpublished, a social experiment in creative writing. This is a place for short stories, fanfics, screenplays, spin-offs, unsanctioned crossovers, and woefully (heretofore) unpublished Star Trek novellas.
I imagine all of us as secretly the authors of esoteric, eclectic, and above all embarrassing canons of amateur works. In other words, I already strongly suspect you of harboring a lost season of 24 or a holodeck episode of TNG, whether you've written it down yet or not.
This is like a joke thing. It's possible, even likely, that the whole site is a metaphor for the type of content I have in mind: a lot funnier in concept than when actually written down. But, I love to be committed to jokes and I've already spent $42 on novelty domain names this year, so I hope we can play this one out.
If you're still with me, here's how to participate ...
You can be a reader by visiting woefullyunpublished.club, or you can subscribe to the newsletter from the sidebar (tap the three lines in the upper left).
You can be a writer by emailing your stories to post@woefullyunpublished.club. Please do write. You can submit your stories under a nom de plume. The format and topic is totally up to you, but you can also send in requests for stories to be written by others or you can pick up and write a sequel, prequel, or spin-off to any other story.
Feel free to share this with friends and family. While I expect not all of the content here will be appropriate for children, I hope some of it will be and can be read out loud at your discretion. Submissions from children are also accepted and encouraged — you can send in handwritten or transcribed stories.

P.S. Get hyped because there is already some great stuff in the pipeline, including my long rumored NBA x Terminator crossover starring Kawhi Leonard as well as a buddy cop dramedy set in the NYC subway based on a single random pic from Reddit.
