- |It seems to me that there should be two boards, misc.writing.fiction,
- |and misc.writing.non-fiction. While some issues are common, they really

- |entertainment and technical writing in this group and it is pretty
- |active. Just a suggestion. Any option?
-
- There is some overlap, and many readers like to read both (and might
- not be able to). But the main reason _not_ to split the group is that
- there is not all that much traffic now. When the number of daily
- postings grows substantially it will be time to divide this group.
-
- My opinion, of course.
