Hi Jane, You can tie yourself in knots, trying to be PC and non-culturally appropriative (if that’s a word: it is now) and not offend anybody. I read an article a while ago, suggesting that if you have a walk-on part using someone called ‘Steve’, change his name to ‘Sanjay’ and leave it at that. i.e. doing just what Steve did with Steve’s joys and…[Read more]

Hello everybody, long time no speak!
Just having a mooch around and see there’s a new short story challenge on the go. But I can’t see anything about it. Only the first few lines of comments and a members’ list. No blog or any clue as to what’s going on. There’s apparently no forum yet, yet people are making choices – and I don’t know what the…[Read more]-
You need to join the group for the forum posts to show up.

Yep, it’s not as straightforward as the Cloud. I can’t believe I’m writing that, what with the numerous sets of instructions people were constantly posting back then for how to navigate. As Kate says, you need to join to see the forum and its posts, even though it’s an open group. Do join. Do have a go. Go on – you know you want to 🙂
-
Yes, do join. When you have joined you will find a sub menu for the group and if you select the “activity” menu you will see all the relevant threads and posts.

Hi Whisks! Waves excitedly…

Do whatever excites you the most? Or do something else entirely? If neither of those are the answer, then I’d crack on with Book 3. Having a better idea of what happens in it, will inform your edit of Books 1 and 2 when the time comes.
If ’twere me, I wouldn’t start yet another project (planning Book 4) as that’ll create more unfinished-ness and…[Read more] -

Ever so late to this, sorry – only just read it.
My take on it is not to sweat what everyone else could do, but to focus on what *you* can do to protect yourself. To take back the power. You are, after all, the most important person in your world.
A long time ago I lived in a rough area and was mugged and the guy had a knife. This left me…[Read more] -

No, m’dear. I don’t know enough about it to consider whether or not it needs help – and assume it’ll be strong enough. 😀

Generous please. There’s already enough meanness in the world.

I know! In August I went out to see the world. Now in September, the world is coming to me. True story.

In the midst of a blurry fortnight of visitors coming and going, so whizzing in and out, soz. Congrats to all those posting excellent news!
-
Also feel like I’ve had endless weddings, visitors, trips and general shenanigans for months. Gets in the way of writing a bit, doesnt it! Lovely to see you, anyway.

Waves and ditto what Raine said except the weddings.
