Lovely blog, Squidge. And your quilting is very impressive. What an amazing colour!

Happy dancing along with the rest, Kaz! Congratulations – this is so exciting. Sorry I’ve not been in among the beta readers but I’d love to catch up with this some time.

Read some of those stories, @johnalty – superb stuff, all with a strong, distinct voice. Even a couple of twists. Looking forward to finding @elle‘s stuff too
Jules replied to the topic Receiving an email headed 'Offer of Representation'…. in the forum Podium 7 years, 10 months ago

Thabks for the shout out, Kaz 😊 it was your talent and perseverence that won the day though xxx
Jules replied to the topic Friends in the forum Coffee Shop 7 years, 10 months ago

There are two things it does do, John.

1 – it forms one of the filters on what you want to see on the main wall (Activity tab on main menu). You can toggle through the sub menu and choose to only see what friends have said. Right now we’re a small forum of 70 but if we hit a couple of 1000 of active users, you might very well prefer to just see…[Read more]

You mean the coppery tang of blood as her scalpel slices through pale flesh?! Just kidding. I know what you mean, Laure, I need to work on the atmosphere.
I hope this exercise is helping others to get a grasp of what makes a story work – join in everyone.

Can someone explain this “friends” thing? I have seen it on other forums, so I know it’s a recognized feature. And I’ve had “friend requests” to which I always respond positively. What I don’t get is what it does that just being a member of the forum doesn’t. Aren’t we all friends? Confused.

I feel another tip coming on. Desperate to retrieve something from the Word Cloud? Do you know some distinctive word or phrase in the text? Well, it’s worth a try, but prepare for disappointment. While the Cloud was up and about, Google cached a lot of its content on its own servers. It does this with many sites to speed up searches. So you could…[Read more]

I’m doing the moonwalk here for you, Kaz. Slippin’ and a slidin’ all over the place in celebration.
Well done!! Delighted for you and Ava and the agent and PRH who have a great book that’ll sell bucketloads.

Well done, Janette! Good for you.
Hilary replied to the topic Receiving an email headed 'Offer of Representation'…. in the forum Podium 7 years, 10 months ago

Hurray! Well done indeed, and all the best for the next steps. Keep us posted.

Haven’t stopped dancing little happy dances since I heard. 🙂

Ava will be so loved by everyone who meets her. I can’t wait to see where she takes us. (and Jack. I love him a bit) xxx
Athelstone replied to the topic Receiving an email headed 'Offer of Representation'…. in the forum Podium 7 years, 10 months ago

Hey, Kaz – fantastic. And really well-deserved!
Jules replied to the topic Receiving an email headed 'Offer of Representation'…. in the forum Podium 7 years, 10 months ago

This is so well deserved. I can’t wait to see Ava meet a larger audience. I’ve loved the book since our SE days! Congratulations, Kaz. Really thrilled for you xxx 😊😁💞
Daedalus replied to the topic Receiving an email headed 'Offer of Representation'…. in the forum Podium 7 years, 10 months ago

This is absolutely wonderful Kaz, and I can’t think of anyone who deserves it more. To find someone like that who ‘gets’ your writing and you click with, and the double endorsement of the PRH editor as well! Absolutely delighted with this, and can’t wait to read the book
Sandra replied to the topic Receiving an email headed 'Offer of Representation'…. in the forum Podium 7 years, 10 months ago

Superb news Kaz – I’ve always loved your writing so know this is very well deserved. I’ll be in Melbourne in November, but more whizzing in and out a couple of times, on our way elsewhere, Will send you a closer wave, at least.

I’m going to go with the advice given and submit it to another comp, this time with its original title ‘The Grandmothers’. If it sounds familiar, it is because it was an old comp entry over on Cloud but which I polished up a little, this one set in a Celtic village (yes, rather like my other wip *blushes*). As I don’t want to compromise by…[Read more]
