Yeah, we seem to be sticking with the weekly thing. (I swear I'll catch up... one day...)

If we had too many people wanting to submit within one week, then Chaos and I would pick the submitters based on who hadn't had a crit recently. But it hasn't been a problem yet.

Okay...so about the whole submission thing,I have a few questions: Do you guys give us deadlines, or do we decide which weeks to submit? And is it okay if I submit this coming Monday?
Thanks!

In order to submit, you need to make a  $100 check payable to: Silk or Chaos and then ask for permission to submit.  Your check will not be refunded, even if you don't get to submit.   ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Actually, you just do what you just did...ask if you can submit and Silk or Chaos will put you on the submission list.

Hi guys/gals,

So I've spent the last 3-4 days skimming through the threads of this forum and really think this group sounds like a ton of fun. I would love to join up and submit writing I'm doing as well as critique others (that's required I know, but it doesn't mean I can't say I would like to do it.)

Email:   (guess what I do for a living.)

As for reading, I think we are asking everyone for 1 critique of others work a week correct? And more if you are able? If that is the case perhaps I could start with recent startups (so I don't have to read 5 chapters to get to the sixth chapter that has been submitted for critiquing.)

Thanks for having me,

well if you do that is.

Welcome Revast.

What we've been doing is giving a brief synopsis in the e-mails we send out with submissions, to cover what's happened previously, for those who may have forgotten, and for those who weren't able to read it--whether they're new, or just didn't have the time. So yeah. You don't have to be limited to just the new stuff....

Sounds like a great deal jwdenzel! Thanks for being so being so thoughtful and caring.  I was just about to write that $100 cheque that M told me to, when I saw your post.  Whew! That was a close one!

Now, do you want that $50 in cash or cheque? ;)

Hamster, for $75 dollars, I can teach you how to understand when people are scamming you....like jwdenzel is. ;D

And I'll take that in cash form. I work only with bills. ;)

Will Rogers said the easiest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

I only give free advice (or at least in the public domain).

Hey, that's what I do!...except that I fold it about 3 times.....I think. So I've tripled my money! Sweet!

Isn't there a whole series about dragons called that?

(And don't worry deckacards... I've already been told my book title is being used to.  Maybe we can start a "I need a title" club)

Hehe...the "My Titles Suck" club...or the MyTitS Club  ;D

(I couldn't help it...I'm a horrible, horrible man...)

Anywho...yeah, it really is a working title...have no intention of naming it that, but it'll work for now...

Thanks for the heads up!
