Haha. I guess I'm just OC that way. I have my life already all scheduled for the week we're moving.

I'm thinking Steph is really happy to have us to masacre her story. Otherwise, she wouldn't have all this fun re-writing to do?  ;D

The next meeting isn't until June 20. I'll email you guys the chapters when it gets closer to that time, and send out reminders.

Yup, with enemies like these, who needs friends...ur, with friends like these...whatever!

Nah, you didn't massacre it, although sometimes I wish you did. It just needs work. That darn Point of View kills me everytime. I should just keep everything first person, so I don't mess up.

I sure hope I have working internet around June. We'll see!

actually, that might be one way to make it easier. Write each scene as first person from the POV character, then go back and change it to 3rd person.

So I guess the AS meeting for June 20 to go over my chapters is coming up in a week.

I'll be sending out chapters 19-22 (or so) in the next few days. It's just me, Steph, and SE--is that right? If one of you can't make it, then we'll reschedule. It's not worth it to meet if there's just one other person.

However, it turns out that Stephanie can't make it, so we're postponing tomorrow's AS meeting.

Here's the updated schedule.

It looks like we're losing Jade, that school is too busy for him to attend anymore.

Do we need to recruit? We're going on 3 active members right now.

a group of three is enough for me, actually. I belong to the other, much larger group too. I'm cool if you want to add one or two people too, though.

Would it be bad form to recruit one from the other group? (Since they're so big anyway?)
