I've been toying with the idea of a site for original written works, in the same vein as current fanfiction sites or Deviantart.

I imagine it would end up working along the shareware model, x chapters here for free and purchase access to the full story, or something along those lines - though if there is a market for it you could use it as a streamlining process for publishing houses I suppose

Is anybody aware of a site like that in the wild already?
