BrokenSpleens are not a writer's community.
We are a distribution network.
Members of this community share documents looking for viewers. Documents can be of any nature. Members of this community help these documents find readers by printing and distributing them.
For example, if one were to write a diatribe against the leadership of Country X, citizens of said country may want to print it out, and leave copies at local politically bound coffee shops, bookstores, packing taped to lamp posts outside the local news/police stations or churches, or slipped into magazines or books down at the local library.
Documents should be submitted in a format that lends itself well to both printing and photocopying. Members should expect their work to be distributed in black and white, as it's cheaper, and this is being done as a favor. The works can be hosted remotely and linked to, or in cases where the creator does not have webspace, posted in the community under an Lj-Cut. All postings must be made under cuts. Any postings whose nature is graphic and may be not-work safe must in all cases be described as such. If you'd like to show us what you look like naked covered in excrement burning the flag of Country X, that's fine, but it had damned well better be hidden under a cut, and be marked "Not Safe For Work" or NSFW.
Also, keep in mind is that distribution is voluntary. If you make something as obscene as your twisted mind can possibly imagine, don't expect a lot of volunteers.
Posting here grants permission for redistribution. If you want to revoke that, go ahead and post again. I'd expect anyone here requested to comply to do so, but you aren't going to be able to force anyone to not do it if they really want to.
Keep in mind that all work posted here is the sole property of and responsibility of the author, and not that of the community.
Materials properly Lj-Cut and labelled for work safety will not be censored. If it's too offensive, no one will print it. If it's stupid or ignorant, no one will print it. Self police.
However, should someone complain to the Lj-Cops and it comes down to a choice between your artistic integrity or the whole community, expect to suffer.
