In the continued absense of our founder, I will send an email around to everyone, just to make sure it's read by everyone, (can't guarantee it on the thread) , to look for some ideas as to where we want to take this group in the future. It belongs to all of us, so get your thinking caps on.

*breezes out again*

OK I have sent mine out. It is probably the last chapter. For now anyway.
Thanks for the seeds mind as usual on seeing them is a blank but will have a go.

Ann I've got a few things to do this morning, then I will concentrate on catching up with you first, and send your feedback.

I do hope you continue to do the story, there may be less of us but it's ok, we're still here.

I will also send out another short story, to see what you all think. But that might not be until this evening.

Had a few days off writing, had a proper block, as though my brain has gone on strike, and had quite a few of those 'staring at the blank screen' moments. But it's only lack of inspiration, and following a migraine last week.

Thanks TW, I just wondered if it might be more mundane once it got past the excitement of the wedding but I will see how it goes.

Well I have been writing all afternoon, think I have something using one of the seeds, however it looks to be going into more than one chapter. Ooh! Maybe it will turn out to be THE novel.

Ann, how good is that?

It is strange when you first look at the 'seed' and think...no way. But then it all takes shape. I have written a poem already, but not quite happy with it yet.
Then I know I will want to a write another..

Sorry, I had to be out for an appointment this afternoon. I need to check it over again before I send it out, so I will do it tomorrow...when I'll have all day to myself for once!

Ay up ladies!

Just sent an email out, please don't think I'm nagging at you, I'm really not, but I am trying to keep the momentum going. So any ideas you might have, let me know, and we'll see if we can't put them into motion.

Rambling Report 16 Mar 2010 15:18

hmmm lol, thanks for emails Teresa, now I wonder where the 'nosey Rose' came from lol...but it's true...all women called Rose have a burning desire to know all about people, what they do, what makes them tick ;)

I will give some thought to your email about the group. For myself I am happy to continue to get everyone's work and to send out my own , and I WILL be more able to give a bit more time to it soon. I hope!.

That's great Rose.

I never thought of you TBH honest with my Rose....it was just the first name that popped into my head...and I think that's because in my novel, the MC's MIL is Rose and I'd been working on that the day before.

And a big thank you to Teresa, for prodding us when we slumped....lol....XX
