December SloMo 7 years, 1 month agoOh, thanks for sharing @kazg!
I just put this note up on the December SloMo section, because the forums were empty for it so it looked like there was no one here!

I’m going to the launch on 2nd April. Local bookshop will be there with a goodly supply.
But thanks Daeds, for an excellent interview.

Thank you Daeds for uncovering some of my deepest, darkest secrets!
Couldn’t have done any of it without the Word Cloud that was! -

December SloMo 7 years, 1 month agoand thanks @elle! Still NO NEWS and I can’t bear it…:-(

Oh my God, Kaz, you must be going out of your mind!!! Has your agent been in touch? It might be time to ask her what the next step in the game plan is…
-
Tell me!! Yes my agent has been in touch – apparently the re-read was only, finally, happening from the end of last week. But that was the end of last week. And here we are. I’ve gone into a strange state of numbness…!
-
Oh Kaz. Don’t know what to say. Waiting for publishers to come back is the worst, horriblest thing. Try to think about something else…
-
Oh Lord. But at least they are reading it! And they’ll have to get people,across the whole team to read, and that can take time. But an, I feel your pain. I can imagine how you’ve just numbed out! Sending all kinds of soothing and supportive vibes. This publishing malarkey really is a painful process…
-
Oh dear, no wonder you’ve been going out of your mind. At least it sounds like things are moving now. Hopefully the wait won’t be for much longer.
-
Thank you @philippaeast and @elle. Still nothing…:-(

December SloMo 7 years, 1 month agoIs this where we post now? (bit embarrassed to admit I still don’t quite know how to navigate all the Den byroads…)
This popped into my intray and for me its good timing – Camp NaNoWriMo for April. You commit to a personal writing target for a month, much like NaNo but you choose the word count. I’ve been in planning and plotting mode for book…[Read more]

KazG replied to the topic Help/brainstorming needed please – using antagonist narrator in the forum The Writers' Lifeboat 7 years, 1 month ago
What an interesting idea, @bellam. I think this could defintely work.
Maybe one way to play it would be writing Molly in a slightly unreliable narrator way, so the reader is never quite sure whether it really is the house narrating, or Molly’s mental state projecting her own anxieties. I like the Stockholm Syndrome possibilities here too – the…[Read more]

Fantastic interview, @daedalus and @bric! I read an earlier version of this book and I LOVED it back then – can’t wait to read the new shiny published version 🙂

I’ve just printed out Annie Neugerbauer’s worksheet to see if it helps me tackle the next round of wip edits. 🙂

@athelstone – can’t find the donations thingy in forum. Thought it might be under admin, but no joy and it doesn’t seem to be listed anywhere else in there?
-
Hi Squidge, from login select Groups, then scroll down and select Donations, then select Forum 🙂 There are two topics. the first is a summary of where we are and how to donate. The second is for chat.
-
I’ve checked there too Squidge, and it’s showing as not having a forum. No topics Ath.
-
That’s odd. There aren’t any settings I can see to make the forum more visible, or even to hide it or anything really. It’s a public group, can you see the forum if you join it?
-
Yes, you have to join.
-
Ah, well that’s my inexperience with the site then. I should have added ‘join’ as a step.

However, people have enquired about contributing to the cost of hosting the site, so the Donations group will show you how to if you want to.…[Read more]
