Partly it depends on whose idea of quality you want to enforce. If you want to enforce your own personal idea of quality, you will have to involve yourself personally in selecting writers and stories, or in editing the stories: - Invite only writers that you trust to write high quality stories. - Select and publish only the high quality stories. If you pay professional rates for the stories, that will attract professional writers. - Edit the stories yourself. If you're a skilled editor, you can improve some pretty good stories to be even better, though it's unlikely that anyone can edit a bad story into a good one. - Frame it as a contest, where you select the top few stories each week or month or quarter or whatever. If you want to use your readers' ideas of quality: - Allow readers to rate the stories. Though this doesn't ensure the quality of any given story, it does give readers a general indication of each story's quality (or at least popularity).
