I took a bit of a liberty, guys. Writing Magazine is starting a new monthly feature on writing circles and groups. I emailed them about our beloved forum, and they've sent me a letter of response.
They want to do a feature on us, showing extracts of our work. They were particularly impressed with GC's poems, and the various features of our forum.
Did I have anyone fooled for a second? Or am I the april fool?

You had me, even though its now the 5th.
The Thought Fox - April 4, 2005 08:12 AM (GMT)
LOL! But it sounded far more convincing in my head. You lot must be more gullible than me!
stressederica33 - April 4, 2005 09:29 PM (GMT)
Welll u never know it could happen... would be cool. :D

do you really think it's possible to make AU go live?
The Thought Fox - April 25, 2005 09:08 AM (GMT)
Of course. If we had enough activity (we're talking thousands of members rather than tens) and Writing Magazine were stumped for what they could put in their pages, it would be entirely possible to go live.
Gemsykins - April 25, 2005 09:50 PM (GMT)
Well, aren't we the optimist... :P
Rapture_Taylore - May 1, 2005 03:26 PM (GMT)
possitive thinking is probably a good thing though

Kaithar - May 3, 2005 06:05 PM (GMT)
the temptation was very great but i managed to supress myself.
stressederica33 - May 3, 2005 07:29 PM (GMT)
Kaithar - May 4, 2005 09:08 AM (GMT)
yeah, we've had an arguement before about the whole pessimisum optimisum thing

Rapture_Taylore - May 8, 2005 02:30 PM (GMT)
atleast Kai didn't go all phsologiacal (I cant even spell the word but does everyone know what I mean?)
Kaithar - May 8, 2005 06:12 PM (GMT)
i suppse i don't do all phsycological, I just lay down my views and then argue against any points people bring against that view.
Gemsykins - May 8, 2005 09:35 PM (GMT)
Kaithar - May 9, 2005 09:23 AM (GMT)
lol, not sure what i was suppossed to say with that. I'll just fix it.

*smacks him up side the head*
that was mean. actually, i knew it was an april fool cos you said they were into my poems....still doesn't beat what me and squeek did to you last year.
Remember TF?
The Thought Fox - May 13, 2005 10:36 AM (GMT)
Yes, I do......gits.....
ACTUALLY, you can get Authors United anywhere in the world, without a computer!!
Ive just discovered that my phone is a WAP phone (even though i've had it for nine months now! d'oh!), and I can check AU on the move. True, it takes bloody ages to load up, and it's unreadable, but it CAN be done!
Kaithar - May 13, 2005 11:46 AM (GMT)
that will improve with time. It would be quite nice to be able to check the forums wherever you are.
stressederica33 - May 14, 2005 10:07 AM (GMT)
I already discovered that :D .. i check out my friends bands website if i need to check when gigs are etc... :) but it doesn't load everything the same - i can't get into topic forums etc.. only gig pages... :(
Rapture_Taylore - May 15, 2005 02:25 PM (GMT)
this may sound really stupid but a what phone? whats WAP?
The Thought Fox - May 15, 2005 02:59 PM (GMT)
WAP is a phone that can access the internet.
