Hi there. Welcome. This is more of a writing-focused website, so it's fairly quiet forum-wise, although there are a few of us in other forums here who have brainstorming threads going, where there is ongoing discussion about whatever work the author requests help with. I have two actively going in the Fantasy/Magic & Sci-fi group.

I suggest joining the Writing Tips & Site Help group. It's kind of quiet there too, but people do respond to questions there for anyone who doesn't want to broadcast their questions to the whole site via Premium. Someday soon, I hope to post an article there on how to maximize the number of reviews you receive here, which primarily comes down to reviewing other works, establishing a network of other writers on this site (connections) with whom you'd like to trade ongoing reviews, and becoming familiar with the site and using its features to your maximum benefit. There's more to it, but those are the biggest.

For anything urgent or needing/wanting a maximum number of eyeballs, don't hesitate to post it to Premium, and someone is bound to respond fairly quickly. That's what it's here for.

There are a number of published authors on this site, who I'm sure will be happy to answer publishing-related questions for you. The rest of us weigh in as if we knew what we were talking about.

I replied to your latest thread. There's no way to tag someone in the forums. If they're a member of the group whose forum you're using, they will automatically be notified when you post a new thread in that group. They then have the option to subscribe to that thread (topic) to be notified whenever someone posts to that thread. However, it depends on whether they configured their accounts to send them email notifications related to forum posts.
