Andrew Wille's DIY MA course 6 years, 6 months agoTa all! The substance in question was, I believe, CBD oil; two gents were having a very animated discussion about setting up in business to supply it.
@Raine – I am a death-dreamer, too! I’ve been shot, drowned, stabbed – really weird to feel my life ebbing away in the dream.
I think the forced thing is definitely due to the fact that I try to…[Read more]

@raine you could try making the group hidden. Members will still be able to read and post etc. No idea whether the issue is in WordPress, BBPress, or BuddyPress – the relationships are a bit of a nightmare.
-
Have made the group hidden. Will look into it further as I suspect this will not fix the issue. There is deginitely a problem but only with this specific group so far. Will see what I can do.
-
There’s definitely something odd here. If I log out and go to “Groups”, then the MA Course is visible but marked private and I can’t get into it – which is right. If I go to “Writers’ Forum” the MA Course forum is listed, but the only other forums there are the public ones. I can’t get into the MA Course forum this way as it tells me to log on,…[Read more]

Ah, events have overtaken me!

Bizarrely, even with the group hidden, the forum posts are still splashed on the Activity page

Andrew Wille's DIY MA course 6 years, 6 months agoI’m very happy to be on this journey with all you amazing writers, as well. What a privilege! I understand your reaction perfectly @hilary.
I’ve read the Le Guin chapter (again – luckily I already had that book but haven’t properly done the exercises, so hooray for this course) but I’m still waiting for my Burroway book to arrive. Can I get…[Read more]

THANK YOU @woolleybeans and @raine! I’m so appreciative that you’ve both gone ahead and applied scientific clarity and teacherly experience to this huge project and marshalled it into a manageable form. I am SO KEEN and very…[Read more]

Completely agree with everything you say, @raine. Slow and gentle. Let’s have a go and discuss as we go along….

I can’t @Raine. I’d love to though… But do tell us what it’s like.

Damn! Sorry @Raine (AND I posted that before the distillery tour!)
Hopefully my name &/or ‘Step do grave’ ought to find me – links I see might not be different.

Best to check forecast, @raine . Showers were predicted for the English west country – I think for tomorrow and Friday??

Congratulations @sandra! And well done @raine, I’m sorry I didn’t join in as I somehow missed this new version of a comp (great idea btw)…but my fault entirely. I will read all these with relish 🙂 x

Thanks, everyone 🙂
I am just about halfway through writing the second book now so the encouragement is much appreciated.
@JaneShuff – that has to be one of the best TBRs 😀
@Bella – I thought I was being flippant when I spoke about lads marrying their mother-in-laws, but having checked, there were cases where families got split up and the…[Read more]

Could not agree with you more on that, @Raine. There is no shame in surviving. Doing what you have to do in a system stacked against you.

Thank you everyone. You are a fab lot. This is a first draft, unedited, so thanks in particular to @Kate for the nit-picky points which are most useful, though I had not requested them. And yes – September is a while away but I will probably jump straight there as far as Bethany is concerned. Anything in between is likely to be flashback to the…[Read more]

Hooray for you @janeshuff! But I’m not sure about the cabin thing – i’ll go and have a look…
Thanks @raine!
-
@janeshuff what are you calling yourself over there? I’ve set up a private cabin called Mini Den and want to invite you 🙂
-
Should be called Janeshuff. Sorry @kazg I will reply in more detail later. Right up against it with a client who wants something translated into beautiful French in two hours before she gets onto a plane… Beautiful French is not my thing, so need to get it done fast enough to find someone to check it.
