Everything at Spark is from the archive at A Single Spark, the predecessor to this site. You can't leave reviews or upload to that section. It serves the purpose of an archive only. EDIT: You can also view reviews left on the stories.

The fanfiction section, on the other hand, is Dokuga. You can upload your own stories or leave reviews on the stories of others.

If you look between both, you can actually find a lot of authors that moved their stories to Dokuga after A Single Spark closed. If you find something unfinished there, chances are you may be able to find the finished version in the fanfiction section.

If I'm understanding you correctly, Sparks is the old archive for A Single Spark, the SessKag website that existed before Dokuga. While it's a part of Dokuga, it's also a completely separate archive, and - as far as I know - can't accept new submissions.

Fanfiction, on the other hand, is Dokuga's very own archive. You can submit into that one.

Hope this cleared things up.

You can't upload new submissions to Spark. To my knowledge, the only power that an author has over their story there is the ability to ask a mod to remove it if they no longer want it in the archive.

You answered quicker and a lot better than I did! Haha.

Oh, okay. I thought that. Thanks.

Actually, it is close to impossible to remove things from the 'Spark archive. I'm not sure if Mitharus can manage it or not, but I do know that I can't do it. In fact, if I recall correctly, Miss K had the devil's own time trying to do it the one time that she did, and she never did tell me how she managed it.

So, for anyone wanting their stuff taken off 'Spark... eh... it may very well not be possible, SORRY!

Thanks, Wiccan. I never realized that things couldn't be removed. I remember Miss K talking about it once, so I thought the information was still valid

I *may* be able to remove things. There isn't a easy way, so it'd just be finding all references in the DB and removing it that way. Not really a _good_ way, but it can probably be done if there's a request / pressing need for it.

The only time Miss K did it was for an author who was re-working her story and publishing. And I believe that's probably the only time I'd even think of asking for it to be done. THAT is a perfectly valid reason to look into it, but we haven't had any requests of that nature of late.
