Anyone can join this group at anytime.

When you update your blog, post a link here with key words or a sentence description of what you blogged about.

Anyone can look over the thread and link to whatever looks interesting.

I hope this will be a fun way of networking and connecting with each other.

Thanks everyone for participating. [Smile]

I blogged today, Pulling off the Big Twist

Just a warning to my fellow Prosers. If you don't post a link here on your blog day, I will. [Smile]

For what is worth, if you bloggers want even wider exposure, consider posting here:

inkpageant.com

I've been reading that every few days and I already have a few favorite bloggers that I never would have found otherwise...

I just put a couple of posts up on my writer's blog. Guy Antibes is my nom de plume.

Guy Antibes Author Blog

I've put updates on my writing and publishing goals.

If you go to the 'Guy' page, the picture isn't really me. Now you know a secret! [Cool]

Hmm, I don't have a certain day to blog but I have added a couple recently,

So update

And you can scroll down to see a couple of other newer posts, including my First Merry Christmas wishes. Or scroll way down to find some older interesting ones. I sometimes comment on more than just writing and reading.


Oh, This might very well be a good idea, I wouldn't mind more reders, a couple of more followers and a comment or two.

Oh and I just added a post. And if I can remember what else I was going to say I will be adding a second soon. Probably will be adding an update anyway.

I added two posts to my blog.

Including this one

The second one is a story I wrote a couple three years ago.


As you probably know already just click on the title of the blog to get to the main page.

Does anyone use the word count meter? I tried using the one made by Svenja Liv but it got screwed up somehow when I pasted it on my blog. The progress bar gets put below the background.

Martin I know that Coral Moore does use one. She has two on her right side bar and even though she keeps changing her back ground they still show fine. http://www.chaosandinsanity.com


I would like to have one but haven't found one in the list of widgets for my blog.

Okay, I've been a little busy with Christmas shopping and stuff, but there are three posts on The Prosers that have gone up since RoxyL.

Wait does this need a title too by Sabrina

Language and Metaphor and 2nd grade by Sarah

And introducing our new Saturday Proser, Melanie (unwritten) with Life begins at the edge of your comfort

Check them all out. I can honestly say they are all insightful and fun reads.

Is editing the weakest and/or most time-consuming and/or the most maddening part of your game? By reverting back to The Old Ways, I've been having much better success.

Martin took my time making a comment:

So how does it look on your page? Just that smaller line graph?

And for Everyone I think I've posted six posts since I was last here, on various subjects. And soon one on the New Year with a bit of Christmas.

Yep here

I meant did it put up only the line graph or that whole control box.

Most probably an obvious question but I haven't had much experience wit apps like that.

You set the graph on their web page, then you copy the picture. If you want a graph you can update at the edge of your blog page, I haven't found one like that yet.

There are a couple new posts up at the Prosers.

First, I talk about EVOC's excellent survey on self publishing in Amazon & Smashwords & Self Publishing - Oh My!

Then, Sabrina has a great post, Tea and Confidence Make Everything Better

A more personal post on Motherhood and writing

And Susan's post on Fashion politics and persuasian

Very interesting piece on how word choices color the perception of real people and characters. Worth a read.

More Prosers blogs up. Mine on the ups and downs of being a stubborn writer .

Sarah's post on Twitter and promoting your book. No matter what she says, I'd go to a party hosted by her any time.

Finally, today we had a very special guest post by KayTi! She writes about making connections with other writers online.

And I managed to post to notes to my blog. The second is a link to an interesting discussion on Writers Vs Authors.

Well, I vote for Author it's a much nicer name than Writer, unless your a hippie than you probably won't mind naming your kid Writer. [Smile]

Seriously, the discussion is on which are you and are you still writing.


Try Here

My first note is an update on WotF.
