ive tried putting my fanfic onto google docs but it says it cant support them. are there any other places i can put them. - these are .doc files so i have no idea why it doesn't work. i cant afford microsoft office so thats not the answer
ps. i've finished the prologue and chapter 1 of my fanfic - if i can get them online can someone proof read them (whatever that is) and give me feedback on how i can improve them?

Have you tried just creating a document and copying and pasting there instead of uploading?

Well, if it gets up there, then that means you can tinker with it to make it work, perhaps. Give it a go.

You can use Gdocs to write your story. It is basically word.
