Hey everyone,

I am currently working on my first novel. I like to think that its sort of Roger Zelazny-Amberish, It's about two kids out of high school that travel to various fantasy worlds via a magic sword.

Anyway, I love the idea of this writing group and was wondering if I could be added to the list. My email address is:
 

Thanks!

Hi Erik!

Welcome to the group.  Do you envision your novel as YA?   It sounds like a lot of fun.  Can't wait to read it.

Take care
These are not my stories. I just write them.

I think its probably YA but I don't know if there is too much violence for that or not. Its pretty light on things like sex and swearing but there is plenty of decapitations and dismemberment's.   ;D

:( I just realized I am going to be out of town for a few days and I won't be able to critique anyone over that time :( That was when I was hoping to get to ya'll...
And of course, I won't be submitting anything either :P (not that I would have anyway...)  :P


So don't feel alarmed when I still haven't critiqued anyone until Wednesday.

Jason I just tried to click and navigate to your website and my browser just couldn't handle htTtp: as a protocol. :(
You can always get what you want if you never count the cost.

Doh. Thanks. Fixed.  But I'm sure you already figured out the link. :)

I'm alive. Really. I've been alive for a long time (you know, as opposed to leaving RE for a while, becoming a vampire or some other undead entity and then back into an unundead person. Just so there's no confusion there :P). College is crazy busy, and though I have been viewing Reading Excuses quite regularly, I simply cannot recall the last time that I've posted. Clearly, it's been much too long. I apologize sincerely.

However, despite my total failure in regular critiquing and submitting, I do have everyone's submissions organized by member. So, if anyone missed any submissions, I should have it and I would be glad to send them out. Just shoot me an email.

I will get to them, if it's the last thing I do!

No problem. :D

And the next submission date is next Monday, the 6th (I should probably update that thread, since we seem to be sticking with the weekly submissions for-sures. Feel free to pester the people who submitted last week to send out their submissions. I believe last week's submitters were Jason (jwdenzel) Maxonennis, and Reaves.

We should probably edit all of the pinned topics to say that it's a weekly thing, not a bi-monthly submission schedule anymore. That's long overdue. Perhaps I will get to that this weekend.

But! Most importantly, I would like to state that I'm submitting next Monday, the 13th. It's been forever since I've submitted, but that's no matter. This submission will be a short story. Hopefully it will be up to par.

Me too!  And when my life (or rather, the lives of my close relatives) slow down a little, I will again submit, though by that time, I should just start over by submitting the revised Ch. 1... :P

This may have been addressed but I just can't find it.  Are there ever multiple authors making submissions on the same week?  I'd prefer that there were, because the number of members is growing and it could get unwieldy in that case.

Usually yes that is the case. I might submit this week if I can get around to some critiquing first...

Can I get added to the list? I wouldn't mind helping to critique on Monday.

It's entirely dependent on if people have things to submit. I'd imagine that right now people are quite busy, but submissions should pick up eventually.

I'll make sure Silk remembers to edit the first post in this topic and put you in there, Erik!
