Welcome to the Chamber, a collection of fan fiction celebrating women of color.

Originally part of the Valent Message board, a site devoted to the talent of Renee Elise Goldsberry, The Chamber has expanded to include an Archive and Live Journal community, both devoted to featuring diverse female characters.

So to all of the authors that contribute to this goal we thank you. And to all the readers who support our writers we hope you enjoy your time here and know that we appreciate your presence and hope that you will continue to visit us in the future.

What kinds of stories are allowed?

The Chamber is a collection devoted fiction featuring women of color. This means we like everything, as long as there's an awesome woman of color front and center.

Titles and summaries must be kid friendly. No exceptions. "Please read", "Untitled", etc. are not acceptable titles or summaries.

All stories must be rated correctly and have the appropriate warnings. If you are unsure as to how your story should be rated please contact a Chamber Administrator for assistance.

Correct grammar and spelling are expected of all stories submitted to this collection. The site administrators reserve the right to request corrections in submissions with a multitude of grammar and/or spelling errors. If such a request is ignored, the story will be deleted.

Stories with multiple chapters should be posted as such and NEVER as separate stories.

Spoiler warnings are expected on all stories and are mandatory if your submission relates to the current season of any related show. An example of an appropriate spoiler warning to place in your summary would be: Spoilers for The One In Which Addison Finds Her Magic. DO NOT post a spoiler like the following: Spoilers for the episode that J.R. Ewing gets shot.

Submissions found to be in violation of these rules may be removed at the discretion of the site administrators and/or moderators. The administrators reserve the right to modify these rules as needed.

Be respectful in your postings including reviews, author's responses to reviews, author's notes, profiles, and comments.
