Thanks for this Raine. I’d seen notifications about the Kickstarter but completely missed that they were doing an open call as well

Ah, therein lies a tale…as far as the marketing is concerned, we launch on the 7th 😉

It seems to depend on how you approach it. If you go from the notification, not all replies appear. Go through your own profile, on ‘Activity’, and it should all show up
-
Couldn’t reply there though (I think that’s work related though). But now I can see everything in the main Activity place. Happy days!
-
We’re still at the wandering around the new building/complex, opening doors and being confused we are not back at the main lobby stage, aren’t we?
-
Indeed. I look forward to finding the door that leads to John Malkovich’s brain.

Hi Daeds. Is A Black Matter for the King not out yet? I think I got it delivered to my Kindle a couple of days ago…

Daedalus started the topic Book 2 of Oath and Crown out soon in the forum Podium 7 years, 7 months ago
First of all – someone else really has to post an achievement in this section soon or I’m going to start feeling really selfconscious…
Secondly – it’s only a couple of days to go before the launch of @jillybean ‘s and my Norman Conquest novel A Black Matter for the King, and Historical Fiction Blog Tours has an exclusive excerpt to start the…[Read more]

(Not especially, it’s just that ever since watching Star Wars I take every opportunity to say that. See also ‘watch your mouth kid, or you’ll find yourself floating home.’ Most of all, I wanted to shoot a radio and say ‘boring conversation anyway’.

Knowing little about how these things work, it feels as though we’re in a bit of a death spiral now, but for all I know it will continue to limp on indefinitely
-
Somewhere else is also down – as is the SocialGo.com site and also their ‘cache’ server. It’s not looking good.
-
I have a bad feeling about this

Uh oh. Cloud is just giving me the white screen of doom

Yes, it disappeared earlier this morning. Same happened yesterday but it came back. Rather a long break today 🙁

Richard – FWIW, you also have us. One of the things I’d like the Den to be, as the Cloud has been at its best, is a place for mutual assistance, advice, support and so on. You may not have a presence on social media, but a lot of us do, and social media is as much about building a network as anything else. We can help you if you want to go down…[Read more]

Excellent point about craft, Philippa. I’ve always been rather, um…informal about how I approach structure etc but the more I learn, the more criticial I find it to be. I think you tend to improve naturally just by writing (and reading) more, but actively learning is essential. The problem I have with throwing myself into addressing matters of c…[Read more]

Well FWIW I know a few writers who have really good publishing deals, a few more who have agents and are subbing to publishers, some more who are subbing to agents, and some who haven’t got to that stage yet. The honest truth is that the vast majority of writers I know well are bloody good. The ones who have the great deals are bloody good, but s…[Read more]
