    James– congratulations on finishing the course. I got your tweet asking how I was doing but I didn’t want to answer in public. My husband has been a bit off for a couple of weeks but over the past five day he got really really sick and yesterday he was diagnosed with sudden onset diabetes. his blood count was 31.9! regular is 4-7. So I put stuff on hold while this was happening. I’m getting back into things now but that was the delay– thank you for keeping tabs, I really appreciate your partnership.

    I love the ideas, I support a real good editing process. I would think we could go a round with a dozen of our own contacts then submit to the group so everyone can go over and add comments. I do think a set of outside, professional edit eyes could be invaluable- maybe we could contract one person and split the cost by however many members we have.

    I like the idea of bios and a bit of history re the story with the story. I like poems dispersed through out the work. I like the idea of arranging the works with purpose.

    Whichever chat we end up using will work for me, I’m sure.

    Another title I’ll throw out is We’ve Got Punch. It’s a play on the saying “We’ve got cake and punch.” to entice members to a meeting. And also an allusion toward stories with heart.

    Hi Michael, You’re very welcome. It was a pleasure to read. I don’t have Goodreads at this time. But I have been considering it. If I get something I will definitely post there too.

    Margie, you’re going to be missed but you’re absolutely right, it is a busy time. If you feel like jumping in a week or two- please do so, you’re always welcome.

    James! I am nervous. But I’m going in.

    James! You launched! That is so cool. What is your twitter? we should add each-other. I will do the first exercise as well.

    I’m cool with chatting here. I thought we could all add each-other and share our experiences and take the plunge together.

    Michael! I hope your surgery went well and you’re recovering nicely and feeling good and being spoiled. I want you to know I read THE CONSECRATION OF JACOB JORDAENS and I wrote a 5 star review on Amazon. I was late getting to it but it is done. !!!!You wrote an amazing book and should feel very proud of yourself. My heart pounded most of the way through. You’ve have a great freaking mind. Your characters were fully developed and unique and I read some of your lines more than once they were so pretty. I loved the libretto! magic. You’ve got talent Mr. Michael Brown.

    James, Margie –Let’s do this. I had a twitter a long time ago but I found it a bit busy. I’d love to chat with you both and be together. I’ve read people get a lot of traffic, connections, opportunities from twitter so I’m definitely open to the process.

    Do you want to chat here? Facebook IM? should we get together once in awhile for in person dialogue.

    The logo is great, appealing, clean. I’m also excited to see what Stephanie and Angie have designed. The timeline works for me. Are we thinking of editing each-others work? If so we should prob allow a week or two for that to take place. Title ideas: Story Parade, The Writer’s Carnival.

    Freya was one of my fave goddesses 😉

    Stephanie- your idea about giving the book away to email list members etc is a great one. You’re such a smart cookie!
