For SDMB authors

Well, I did it. I formed a Yahoo club called
SDMB writing club
http://clubs.yahoo.com/clubs/sdmbwritingclub

Anyone interested in trading ideas, stories, publishing info, etc can jump over and check it out! Be sure to use the links area to post your favorite magazine sites (hopefully that take submissions) and link to any stuff you already have published or are working on.

Enjoy and contribute when you can!

Zette

Let us not forget the premiere on-line publication, Zette – the SDMB E-zine.

Thanks for the plug, Chief!

Incidentally, I’m trying to join as we speak (“trying” because I forgot my Yahoo ID, password, ZIP code, and just about anything else you CAN forget; and now I’m waiting for Yahoo to e-mail me with info).

OK, let’s go for three in a row!

Zette – I tried to join the club, and went through all the motions. It said I was supposed to get an e-mail with instructions on what to do next. It’s been almost a full day and no e-mail. I was expecting something automated, but thought it might be waiting on you and so I figured I’d let ya know.

Great idea!

Well, THAT’s a pain in the ass. Yahoo can be tricky at times. Thing is, you have to agree to their “terms of service” to be able to join (won’t post illegal stuff, etc) so I think you HAVE to wait for them. I’ll send you an actual “invitation” and see if that works out.
What is the Yahoo ID you created?

Anyone else with problems, post your Yahoo ID (or create one) and I’ll send you an invitation- I know that works because I used it for my other club (a private one)

Ok, I’m e-mailing you the info.

I wonder why it didn’t work right the first time.

Never mind! I just tried it again and it sent me the e-mail right away. Mind you, I didn’t do anything differently, but this time it worked.

< shrug >

Go ahead and send me an invite; my ID is violinplayer14 (@yahoo.com)

Worked fine for me. Now I just have to write something.

yeah, I know- I’m like a fucking demon of creation with these usernames.

C’mon folks, we need some more activity. Seven people joined so far, but I KNOW there are more writers than that around here. This is a pretty creative group!

Thanks for the bump DavidB. I had meant to join up a few days ago, but forgot about it til I saw the thread at the top.
Now I am all joined, just have to read some of what you folks have written. I already am a bit intmidated, but thats ok. :slight_smile:

On an unrelated note, David. Is the deadline for submissions for the next Teemnigs past? Because, I have something I would like to submit that is Winter themed.

Don’t be intimidated. Well, unless we say your stuff is crap or something. :wink:

Alas, that would be when was the deadline. We’ve got it pretty much ready to go. The next issue is scheduled for Feb. 1, so it’s still winter. The sooner, the better!

I didn’t have time to give much attention to this before thanksgiving, so I thought I would bump this just to see if anyone is still interested.

Okay, I’m game… but I can’t seem to get in… hmmm…

Strange. The link works for me. You do have to be registered with Yahoo, though (or register now).

Count me in - tomorrow, when I’ve got the energy to deal with Yahoo.

Well, yahoo claims to have sent me a message about how to join. I’ll believe that when I see it! It’s not there yet… :frowning:

I’ll let you know if I have more problems…

& I’ll be fierra_uk because some evil person had already taken fierra…
