Honest question to those that see this; what format do you like?
I've been bouncing around this site for some time and have seen stories written in submission discription, others as .txt so you can read it without downloading. Still others are PDFs.
What do people prefer? Should I change the format type or just leave it as word docs?

I think it's a good idea to embed the story in the description either way though. It keeps the reader on the FA page, which makes it just a bit easier for them to remember to fave/comment after reading. Plus keywords from the story might show up in the FA search.
I generally prefer either .txt / text file for short stories, or PDF for longer works or works with embedded pictures, etc.
