What is a good blog/ website for a writing club?
My club wants to be able to share their stories online for other members to read and comment. I originally thought our Facebook group would be ok but then I remembered, and others have reminded me, that FB has this rule that anything you post is owned by FB. This is troublesome since if anyone comes up with a great idea, it makes it so they can't get published.

I know online already is dangerous because ideas can be stolen by other people. But many members like the blog idea because it allows them to still be a part of the club without having to attend all the meetings.

Are there any good blogs or websites that do not have a law like FB does and is password protected so only our members can see the writings?
Well, to further explain, I'm not trying to say Facebook will necessarily steal it. I'm just saying it would be more difficult to be published. It technically is already published.

Facebook does have private groups, that would probably suffice. Sites often have the disclaimer that they may reuse any contributed content as they choose, typically for promotional purposes, I doubt they would be stealing it as you picture, Facebook probably does honor the status of private groups.

You could use a free forum host and require account logins to access.
