So, how did tonight's meeting go?

It, um, didn't.... Apparently, George's wife brought home free tickets to something, gave him "the look," and off they went! Can't blame him really. So we're supposed to email comments.

I've been deadling with some major academic drama, though. Sorry, George. I will do my best to write up some comments. Tonight, I am doing homework; tomorrow night is class. Friday night I have to do some grading. uck!

Nessa- you are the schedule goddess.

I am interested in joining.  Wednesdays work best for me right now.


Fabulous. So now we have:

Hannah (kaykeelolo)
Jena/Kris
Shrain
Nessa
George (Neuronscream)

And that sounds like a good enough group to me for the time being. I will work on the schedule for next week (it will either be Hannah or Jena? any volunteers?) and we're taking suggestions for a new group name.

ok semi confession time, I have found it hard to get the motivation to come back because I had a bad experience a few weeks ago, where I felt like the submitter really didn't care what I had to say. Im sure its normal and all, but it got me down.

When you have motivation then you can submit a request to be added to the group and we'll see what happens then.

Until then, keep writing! That way when you're ready you can have a bunch of stuff to submit.

I can't go yet.  I don't have enough to go on.  I guess I could send outline stuff, but it wouldn't be ready until next week.  Are we meeting this Wednesday?

So are we moving group to Wed. then? I'm okay with that, though I'll have to record Lost. (Thank you, DVR!) I can't go this week either. I've had a nightmare week and I have papers to grade besides regular homework. Blah. But I *thought* that Jena was going next.

I'm ready.  Just need to send out a sub later today, and know whether we're meeting Tuesday or Wednesday.

We're meeting Wednesay at 7pm (MST), and we'll go over Jena's (once she emails it to us  ;)).

At which time we'll discuss the group's new name.

Edit: Updated schedule.

Wednesday. Jena. Got it. Or... well, I don't have the sub yet. But I've got the plan down.

/me puzzles over a name with what brain cells she has left after grading wretched freshman papers for a couple hours.

I haven't got the submission yet, either. Y'all have mine as a backup in case Jena can't get hers out in time.

I think last night's group went as well as could be expected. Although us commenters were all over the place. I hope we didn't confuse Jena/Kris.

Hannah is next. I sent out an email with a nice, long 'To Do' list. Hopefully everyone got it.

Edit:

Re: To do list item #3: Shrain won't be submitting for November 1, and won't be attending, either, so I'm going to just have the schedule skip that day.

Re: To do list item #1: here's a few ideas for the group name:

Prosaic Continum
Prosaic Spectrum
Prosaic Speculists (then the acronym would be P.S. which I think is funny)
Tale Spinners
Prose Spinners
Writing Minions
Spinning Minions (ok, i'm just kidding about this one, but I like the alliteration)

Isn't anyone going to help create/choose a name? Really, you may not be happy with the one I decide on.
