I like the fanclub idea, but I'm wondering how it would differ from a talk page? Maybe people could submit fanart, have speculation discussions, contests, polls, and other things. Personally, I think it would work best if it was a singular club for a particular writer. Like, it changes to the next story when that comes out, so they don't go to waste, eventually. I do like the actual chapter discussion to be on the talk page, though, and it seems to work to have most contests on the talk page as it's checked somewhat often... IDK how it would work. Less read stories (no offense at all), should probably not have fan clubs. I can't imagine that working, and keeping people from having hurt feelings if they don't get members. To me, it seems like talk pages are sufficient for those stories.

Maybe the workshops could be featured on the sidebar thing. Also, the shoutbox (one of the Widget options) can be used to inform people about new posts, but you can only have about five posts up there at a time.
