Hi Sol ...

I renewed a quarterly membership in order to access the site again after a couple of months away. I'm not worried about any money I may have coming in return - don't worry about that. But I do have two other issues needing attention:

1.  I was going to post a new chapter to a WIP. For a 1543-word chapter, the site wanted to charge me 9.43 points.  Based on previous postings, I think 4 to 5 points would be normal. I've previously posted chapters in excess of 2,000 words that only cost me 6.8 - 7 points to post.

I did not post the chapter. The WIP is "Alabama Greene", if that helps. I know you're busy, so I'll wait to post the chapter until I hear back when you have time to do so.

(I posted this another thread earlier today, but saw that you wanted any issues needing your attention on this thread, so I reposted it here.)

2.  When I last accessed my account before the site crashed, I had three hundred and twenty something points accumulated. It now says I have 266 points. If you could make those up I'd be most appreciative.

I'm not requesting any more than the two issues aforementioned, but I'd gratefully accept anything else you feel might be appropriate.

Thanks in advance,

Alan

Congrats, Randy! Your work is always worthy of commercial publication. You are one helluva International Spy/Thriller author. Here's wishing you lots of success with this and all future novels.

Welcome, Martin!

Yes, it is a splendid idea to start looking around becoming involved. You might care to read and review a few stories, novel chapters, poems, etc. If you read posts that offer points, you can start to accumulate points in order to begin posting your writing when you are ready to do. It's a great community. I've been here over 12 years and have learned so very much about the proper way to present my writing. Many good authors and poets hang out here who are ready to offer support and suggestions for improvement.

I'm an American but my father's side of the family is Welsh ... left Wales in the early and mid 17th century. The were primarily from Pembrokeshire and Glamorgan.

I hope you enjoy your time here and find it helpful. Wishing you the very best.

Alan

Way to go, Randy! You've earned it. Good luck.

Hi Stella ...

Welcome to the site! I've been here many years and my writing has improved dramatically, much to the credit of the folks on these forums. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have and equally benefit from it your time here.

I do think it would behoove you post the entirety of the first chapter, That would give us a better opportunity to look at the foundation of your story and general feel for your writing style.

Good luck with your writing!

Alan

Hey Randy ... so cool, my friend. You are an excellent writer and deserve this. Continued success!!!

Alan

Thanks Ann & Randy. She's really tired today but seems to be relatively stable.

Many thanks to all who have expressed your kind thoughts. Diana is home now. She's weak and mentally ragged out but her specific health issue is much better. Again, many thanks!

Will be back to reviewing and posting this evening.

Alan
