A new writing community is opening up

[spikesgirl58]

It's called Writerly People and you can find out more about it here

It's a site about writing, encouraging, and bouncing ideas off each other. Cerezamarrero is anxious that it remain about writing, the process, our experiences and thoughts about future projects.

You might want to give it a check out!

I think I'll give it a try. My Muse just hasn't been cooperating for some time now.

Excellent.

BTW, got my copy of Erebus yesterday. it's like reading butter, all smooth and tasty.

I won't tell you how it ends.

Oh, wait ...

[spikesgirl58]

Wait... what? Is confused...

[lee_the_t]

If you REALLY don't know how it ends, I'm DEFINITELY not going to tell you. I assumed you knew the story. :-)

[spikesgirl58]

If you mean it's going to end in flames or die a slow death like most of the communities here, yeah. I wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something else.

The fact that it was started and then the owner went on vacation... doesn't bode well.

[lee_the_t]

No, I meant Erebus!

[spikesgirl58]

Oh, I see now. I know the ship was lost with all hands.

[lee_the_t]

I kinda figured. That was the "oh, wait ..." part.

It's amazing to me just how readable it is, but then I love his documentaries, so it shouldn't.

[lee_the_t]

Agreed. It would have benefited from more careful editing, as there are a number of grammatical errors, but I know Michael Palin wrote some if not all of his travelogue commentaries, so he is certainly capable of good writing. I adore his travelogues. I wish there were more. I was also always amazed at how healthy and hardy he was, doing all that traveling, and often into areas where the food and water could be questionable.

[spikesgirl58]

I wish there was, too. We are working our way through Full Circle at the moment. It would be nice if he'd linger on the food a bit more, but that's just me. He has issues, trust me. He touches upon them in his books.
