Welcome! (Page 1 of 2)

I've just opened a WIP forum to discuss the works we have in progress. If I'm missing one of your works you may want other people to discuss in a forum please feel free to add it.

Kiss,

Gacela.

Thank you Gacela for the welcoming me into the group.
I'm looking forward to reading everyone's work and offering advice/encouragement whenever needed. I'm not published (yet) but I am an avid reader, and any comments are more from that discipline.

Is there a schedule or order of how to start reviewing each other? What is the expectation. I'm currently reviewing Suin through another group and Rhiannon, just because, and now Sheriff Norm.

Does everyone have a particular story/book they are currently working on that they would like reviewed over other works in their repertoire?
Guess I'm asking, how does this work?

As long as everyone tags this group as one they are publishing to, it should show up in the "group contents."

Sheriff Norm,
Go to your "4-Publish" settings for your work. Under the "Publish Settings" there are two questions:
Choose who can see your content?
Choose which groups to publish our content to:

You may have selected Anyone can read your content, and that's fine, all those who find it can read it. But unless you "Publish" to the "Close friends" group, it won't show up under the groups content.

Welcome to the group CJ
I don't think there are any rules or timelines or anything here! We just review when we can and if we have additional thoughts, we put them in the forum so others can see what we're thinking!
I'll be over to review more chapters of yours soon enough (hopefully this weekend), but I'm struggling to find free time at the moment.

Thanks Rhiannon - although I think I arrived at the group on the same invite as you! But welcome to us all in this close little group

Oh, & CJ, I think it's best to review the works that are being posted in the group. I'll continue to review you according to the schedule of the other group, but will also respond to any additional reviews you want to do from within this group. Does that work for you? If you just mention it in your review, then I'll come and review you back!

Gacela, I can't think of anyone extra now, but if I come across someone with the right writing and the right personality (because that counts too here! ) I'll suggest them here!

I think you get Gacela to let him or her in, and that's it.  The main difficulty is finding Gacela. lol

Hi CJ, why don't you ask Sol for admin rights so that you can add the writer to the group? Since Gacela hasn't been been around for a few months I'm sure she wouldn't mind and wouldn't want the group to become stagnant. You can always give her back the rights once she returns. I'm more than happy to see new members join this group of they have something to offer and if you're vouching for her, I'm sure she's good!

CJ:  I think it's a great idea.  And not your place?  This isn't 18th century England, girl. How it's done?  You ask Sol.  He'll either say yea or nay.  Just tell him that we are, atm, leaderless and don't want our once flourishing group to languish.  An alternative would be to form another group and invite us all to come to thatl

Rhiannon, I love your no BS attitude!
It'll be great to have a fresh perspective around!

I look forward to the new member.  Thanks, Suin.  And we know, CJ, this is a temporary arrangement, not a coup.  I will check her out.

Hi, Gacela,
I'm SO GLAD you are back! Sorry to hear about the romance bit. I find if you don't go looking for romance, that's when it hits- though I'm sure things are more complicated today, with everyone too busy looking on smart phones to connect. Start off as friends, first. You're adorable, so I'm sure the right guy is out there (and law of averages, there's more than a few). I've found the best men have older sisters. Someone to train them on how to be a good man. Apparently mothers don't see the faults in their little boys the way an older sister does.
You've already responded to my note about C.E. Jones joining us, so, other than that, the group site has been relatively quiet.
