Great! I’d love to read some blogs from ten years ago – before all the nonsenses that started in 2016, and when there were busy Writers Forums full of blogs, shallow or profound but always fascinating…
Please post an example…

Great stuff. Thoroughly enjoyed this. Must look out for The Hill of Dreams

Great stuff. Very readable, with enough mini-ouches to keep us viscerally involved.

Why thank you kindly, good Kate. What lovely things to say! (There – I even gave it an exclamation mark…)

I’m sitting upstairs in Waterstones café and trying to switch myself on – slot into gear, slide into alignment – but the dear old brain is too full of mush.
I’ve already chatted with the cheery folk behind the counter, bantered about their tattoos, bought an overly virtuous falafel-and-hummus wrap, swept crumbs from a table, sat down with my…[Read more]

Hey, don’t go – now I know it’s you. Stick around – something might happen. Y’never know…

What happened was that the rigmarole of unrecognised password/user name has to be faced again … thanks but no thanks.

Have just sought out Sally Hopgood (on t’house) and found she is not good at hopping-it. Still there it appears…

Damn! I’ll have another go at offing her tomorrow. Thanks Gerry.

Just looked for you (on t’house) to remedy this – but no Seagreens were available…

I’m there as Jean Hunter, Gerry 🙂

Aha, found yer!

Anyone else do the trim-the-syllables for tightness – and then restore-the-syllables for flow?

Is it available anywhere to read?

Gerry Fenge started the topic On Submerging and Re-emerging in the forum Blogs 4 years, 12 months ago
Here’s how it might go. You attend a Festival of Writing and – clever you – wangle three One-to-Ones, from which the comments are: (a) not so good, (b) a bit better, and (c) not bad at all. So, semi-encouraged, you decide to blast through the redrafting process to completion. Focus-focus-focus. You disappear from social media until finally, hey h…[Read more]

Things are fab-groovy, super-duper, thank you. I hope and trust the fab-grooviness etc is equally well experienced by you and indeed all Denizens.

Great to hear from people – quite like the old days – how nice. Sandra’s comment ‘I suspect quite a lot of us are getting on with writing’ inspires me to consider writing a blog (on submerging and re-emerging – a sort of rhythm that I suspect a lot of us follow).
It’s been sad to lose the Cloud’s timeline – it was a real plus of SocialGo, and w…[Read more]

Hello everyone, I’ve been more absent than present here so don’t feel I have the right to say much as yet – except, gosh, look how many people I (digitally) know, great to see the faces and aliases again.
I was wondering what people think to the new Jericho Townhouse. I’d hoped it would be like the old Word Cloud, but it lacks the same sort o…[Read more]

I’m inclined to agree with you, Gerry. The Jericho layout doesn’t help, but also, to a large extent, we have necessarily become more wary of committing time and energy to sites which may disappear without warning.
Also, I suspect quite a lot of us are getting on with writing.-
I’m finding it very difficult to use. Have joined a group and posted something but now can’t locate it or the original comment it was a response to. This isn’t a plea for help, just a statement. I’ll battle on for a while. Am keeping a word.docx copy of any critiques I give in case I have to post them again.
-
I can locate the group but not my post.

Hi Gerry! How are things?

Things are fab-groovy, super-duper, thank you. I hope and trust the fab-grooviness etc is equally well experienced by you and indeed all Denizens.

Definitely clunky, and the front page timeline doesn’t have the same feel. I received a notification that someone had written something on my timeline, but can I figure out where that timeline is!
-
It wasn’t me, Kate. I hadn’t even thought about timelines 🙂 🙂 Yesterday I thought I’d ‘liked’ myself by mistake, but heaven only knows …
Some of this is my own lack of skill.-
I’m not sure liking yourself should be a mistake. 🙂 🙂 🙂

Lovely to see you Gerry. I’ve not joined Jericho, like @athelstone says, I’m leery of investing time in a platform that may or may not remain open to me. This Den has its own clunky foibles, but I think I’ll stick to mooching around in here as and when I am efficient enough to get online with time to spare!
-
Gerry, if being absent was a disqualification I’d be booted out by now. To my mind, the new Townhouse has the problem of overcoming the old Townhouse. There’s an attempt to push a “wow this is awsome” mood and this, combined with the staff being very evident, is a bit unwelcoming. Awsomeness(?) comes with the people who contribute and there are…[Read more]

This place exists because a bunch of us saw the Cloud thinning out and dispersing and decided we’d better have somewhere to drift off to.
