@physa   Very nice website!

Hi there, 

I've added everyone from this thread that I could, on FB and Twitter. It would be great if anyone has the time to add me back. Never been one to linger on social media before and I only just set them both up. Thought it was about time I got with the times. Sweaty palms from just sharing these links 🤣

Fair warning: It isn't listed anywhere in their written rules, but Facebook's algorithms really hate people using a human face on a Facebook page, rather than a profile, as you're doing.

In my case, it got my account repeatedly shut down, until I replaced the photo with my publishing mark.  Pages are intended to be used for things like businesses and yes, pen names do count as such, but their brainless, automated system will flag your account over and over for breaking rules, when you're actually not and their support staff will ignore you when you try to ask why, because they don't care.

If you want to read more about what happened to me, visit my blog (posts in reverse chronological order): https://owentyme.us/blog/tag_social-media.html

In short, I strongly recommend you swap out your photo for something else, before they flag your account.

Thanks for the follow!

Hey all! I wrote a blog post where I discuss a few of my experiences at the Writers of the Future workshop. In short, it was an amazing experience, but I go into some of the details from a first person perspective. https://www.jeschleicher.com/dopaminesdelight/e4jctb4rf21zz3szijlhzlnjd5iaas

Amazing post John Eric. I feel like I just relived my experience through your experience. Awesome.

@tj_knight Thanks! And I look forward to hearing the firsthand accounts from others in the forum, who will surely find their way to Hollywood (or pro-out, so also a win). Here, I found community, inspiration, and insight about the contest. I'm grateful. Keep writing & submitting, y'all! Can't wait to read your stories in future volumes!

@jeschleicher Thanks for posting! I really enjoyed your blog. For the curious, I also typed up my experiences (though not so entertainingly well or visually gripping). You can find it on my Substack(free, no pressure to subscribe).

I'm writing a new, regular newsletter on Substack related to writing, with a focus on a creative writing MFA program (with genre fiction concentration) that I'm starting this month. I'm documenting my MFA journey in real time, so subscribe if that sounds of interest to you.

And if you sign up to my newsletter (zero pressure/judgment) you will get a free eBook of 'Ashes to Ashes, Blood to Carbonfiber.' The newsletter is unobtrusive/monthly so as not to fill up inboxes, and will include a round-up of speculative fiction I've found/enjoyed over the previous month, and a tiny bit of my writing news at the bottom.

For anyone interested. My site such as it is

rmichaelb.ca.  If you want to give it a view feel free.  Small blog. Small forum. It’s only two months old, so just a baby.  Any comments would be much appreciated even if it’s don’t t quit your day job 😀 

edit:  best viewed on a desktop or laptop. The phone version is still not all lined up correctly. As I have come to find out.  Still working on getting things lined up properly so it can all be viewed/ accessed 

I thought I already dropped my socials on here, but turns out I didn't, so here we go:

I made a "SpecFic Short Story Writers" Starter Pack on Bluesky if anyone here would like adding? I've added a fair few of you already:

I struggled to keep up with the admin after creating it yesterday! So the easiest way for me to add you is a reply here: https://bsky.app/profile/alexharford.bsky.social/post/3lb2yax3ydc2k

If you haven't joined Bluesky already, it seems now's the time, with loads of writers, editors, and publishers swapping it for that platform formerly known as Twitter.

Thanks Alex. I signed up (joined?). I'll try to be more active. Usually I can only report word counts. Or that time I hunted hornets.

I too signed up recently:
