I'd push for the accounts, and almost prefer no Author/title/etc. - as in, have everything in the text. Maybe make them optional fields?

This way I can copy paste something to share instantly. But I might be thinking of a social pastee/pastebin

Another advantage of having accounts: users can "link" stories together to make a book. So if I post story1, story2, story3, I can log in to my account and order them as story1 -> "Chapter 1", "Chapter 2", etc. You can have other cool features too: table of contents, "Save a PDF of your book"
