  2. A nice place for story sharing!
  3. Easy to contact as he post his email address and joined many community. As the blog is for others to submit story, this point is important.

(-) About this blog:
  1. Labels need to be more categorized.
  2. TOO much posts in main page, its is 13 posts! if I'm correct.....
  3. The adsense ads on the left sidebar is a little annoying ;)

Suggestions:
  1. Categorized the story that has been submitted by others. It seem ok right now since your blog is pretty new, but in future when the number of posts getting bigger, it will be problem. Example label such as: Sport, tales, etc. You can also use image button for each category of stories!
  2. Show less posts in the main page, the page load is fast enough but it is not wise to show a lot of post which will make readers confuse. Are you afraid that readers to have difficulty find those stories in archive? If you categorize the posts they will easily find stories that they want to read or add search engine.
  3. Move those ads to other spots or make it blend with the background or choose more contrast color.
