I have no fiction but this might be a good way to add more readers to the group.

I'm interested. I've recently created a lot of work for myself, but depending on what is required, I'd still like to participate.

I'm moving all the threads in the land today, eh? It's now in the Joint promo and...Oh, heck! Y'all know where it is hahahaha!!
Hugs,
Ann
@Miss Mehreen: Keeping it organized so that your group anthology project can be found in the "Group Promo Events/Projects" folder LOL. If it becomes too full, we can whip up a separate folder for group projects. Easy peasey.And thank you for the offer, ma'am ^_~
Hugs,
Ann

Please send me your short stories for project anthology.mehreen10@gmail.com
@Miss Mehreen: Yesss, methinks you're right! Shall keep one folder then. Appreciate the feedback, ma'am! XDHugs,

Great Ann. Please consider sending me a story.
What's the criteria/due date/theme?Or are submissions closed now? Oops.
No it has just opened. Send it in. However, the anthology will not go ahead unless there are enough shorts.mehreen10@gmail.com
Eldon, I received my first short story by Tim. Please send me you email. Cheers
I was thinking of writing one, but it's still on production line, waiting for its turn to the furnace.I wish it spurred Alex to present us with one of his stories. M.L. and I are waiting for quite some time -:)

Alex is welcome to submit his fiction or non/fiction and so is Ian.
Hi everyone,Please send me your short stories by the 15th of August. After that I'll have to get proofing and compiling underway.
Cheers
Do we have any thoughts on a title or theme for this collection?
I can do the fifteenth. It works.I'll add this particular thread to the top of my bookmarks.

That's perfect Alexander.
Eldon wrote: "Do we have any thoughts on a title or theme for this collection?"I was thinking about that too. I would like to ask people if they have any titles in mind. We could select one through vote or something like that.
Tim wrote: "How about 'Portraits'?"That's lovely. Any other Ideas? I had 'Tapestry.'
I was thinking 'Voices' but I like 'Portraits' better!
Eldon wrote: "I was thinking 'Voices' but I like 'Portraits' better!"Yeah 'Voices' seem like a good idea. Since both of like 'Portraits' should we go for that?
So far 7 writers have agreed to contribute. But there might be more later on. 15th of August is the deadline.

I'm good with it. Portraits an anthology...has a ring to it :)

Great let's go with Portraits then.
Eldon wrote: "Have we selected a charity yet?"I thought you were talking with Denise on that.
I think it should be a group consensus. We can hash it out later.
Okay. I'll let you follow up on that since you are looking at the publishing end of it.
*emerges from the darkness*Just wanted to let y'all know that you CAN add multiple authors to a book and everyone will get credit for both reviews and ranking. I'm not certain if there's a limit as to how many but here's an example:
Never Never by Hoover and Fisher https://amzn.com/B00RZVNDSS
If you already knew this...um...oops? Carry on, you awesome buggers!!

Thank you for the tip Ann.
@Miss Mehreen: No problemo, ma'am ^_~ Excited to see this project come to fruition! Rock on, rockers!!

*rocks literally*
Oh, man! This group is always good for a giggle!! Thank you kindly!!!

I finished reading Tim's short story. It is absolutely fascinating. Look forward to its inclusion in the upcoming anthology, Portraits, title also supplied by Tim Rees.
Underway with my own short story. It's not really fantastical, but it's basically just about a darkly humorous day in the life of a cynical freelance negotiator and his far-too-tolerant insurance broker as they deal with the effects that an unusual string of suicide jumpers has had on the negotiator's poor, innocent car.Eleven pages in so far, but I hope it doesn't take up too much space in the end. It might end up being thirty freaking pages at this rate, though.

Send it to me. I'm sure it will be a fascinating story.

Unfortunately, I don't have anything that is worth submitting at this time and I'm maxed out on a few other projects. Perhaps, late this year or next year if you do another anthology.
Ganbatte!
