hawkedup Posted May 23, 2019 Posted May 23, 2019 Hi everyone. I’m 100k words into the 2.0 draft of my WIP (which is shaping up to be no less than 250k words in the end) so I’ll never not have something to submit. Whenever there is room for the newbie please include me, but I totally understand if I get pushed for someone with more seniority. I’m just happy to be a part of the group and hope my amateur insight can help everyone at least a little bit.
kais Posted May 23, 2019 Posted May 23, 2019 @hawkedup have you emailed @Silk to get on the list serve? You won’t be able to submit until doing that and getting Silk’s confirmation. Also note that newbies always get priority!
Mandamon he/him Posted May 23, 2019 Posted May 23, 2019 Speaking of submitting, could I get on the docket for next week, the 27th? I'll be on vacation that week, but will try my hardest to critique everything. I may be a few days late though.

Robinski he/him Posted May 26, 2019 Posted May 26, 2019 Arrgh. I was hoping to submit tomorrow because I'm subbing to Angry Robot again. Deadline is the end of May. I'm unclear if there are five already for tomorrow? If not, I'd like to submit.
Alderant she/her Posted May 26, 2019 Posted May 26, 2019 Looks like four to me--hawkedup, kais, mandamon, and jwerner

Silk she/her Posted May 26, 2019 Author Posted May 26, 2019 (edited) Yes, I think you're good, @Robinski, because I don't think @shatteredsmooth was actually requesting to submit? So the lineup looks to me like @hawkedup, @Mandamon, @JWerner, @kais, and @Robinski. Edited May 26, 2019 by Silk 1
hawkedup Posted May 26, 2019 Posted May 26, 2019 Not sure how strict the rule is but my best days to critique are Sat/Sun and my worst days are Mon/Tues. So, if anyone wants to submit a bit early...

So, if anyone wants to submit a bit early... We aren't super strict about this, especially since submissions are already staggered by nature with many of us in different time zones. Also, you can critique the following Saturday/Sunday if you prefer, and you'll even still be within that week's submission cycle! There's certainly no expectation that we respond to critiques as soon as they come out. 1

The Kraken's Daughter Posted May 28, 2019 Posted May 28, 2019 I'd like to get in on the next round of submissions if possible.

What are you writing? Out of curiosity, I mean. Not because I'm demanding or anything, I was just curious what to expect. Edited May 31, 2019 by Alderant
Mandamon he/him Posted June 1, 2019 Posted June 1, 2019 Also requesting for next week, if it's not too full.
hawkedup Posted June 1, 2019 Posted June 1, 2019 I’d like to try my hand again, too, space permitting.

Not because I'm demanding or anything, I was just curious what to expect. My writing so far has been short stories. (I have an idea for a novel, but I haven't really started outlining yet, let alone actual writing.) Most of what I write falls under the general umbrella of fantasy, but the story I'm focusing on right now is sci-fi.
Silk she/her Posted June 2, 2019 Author Posted June 2, 2019 Oops, a bit late checking the forum today. Apologies! Looks to me like we have @The Kraken's Daughter, @kais, @Mandamon, and @hawkedup. Unless I've missed anyone, that means one more slot if anyone wants it. 1
Alderant she/her Posted June 4, 2019 Posted June 4, 2019 If no one else wants a slot next week (6/10), I'll take an open one. If there are others who want in, I can wait--I don't mind. Basically, if there are five other people who want to submit I can drop off to make room, but if there's an empty slot I'll take it.
JWerner Posted June 5, 2019 Posted June 5, 2019 I would like to submit for this coming Monday, please.
Silk she/her Posted June 6, 2019 Author Posted June 6, 2019 Hey everyone, I'm going to be cross-country for a conference this weekend and will probably be checking the forums late if at all on Sunday, you may want to self-manage for this week
