    I will miss it. Think he's here until Friday...

    I've already selected my photo and scheduled a tweet. That's my contribution done.

    :)

    The subject for tonight's #writingchat is Holidays- writing ones, any recommendations, actual holidays or even those you've got planned.

    So remember to join in on Twitter tonight between 8-9 pm, and use #writingchat
  • Baggy BooksBaggy Books
    Shan't be there, Carol. I've scheduled a tweet.
  • CarolCarol
    Thanks, Baggy. I'm not there either tonight. :(

    Don't worry about me, I'll just talk to myself ...
  • Baggy BooksBaggy Books
    Sorry, but I'm only just finishing work and I must have some time that doesn't involve a computer.

    :-B

    I have scheduled a tweet, so it'll almost be like I am there.

    ;)

    Tomorrow (Wednesday) is #writingchat on Twitter between 8-9 pm. The subject this week is ghostwriting.

  • CarolCarol
    Remember tonight is #writingchat on Twitter, hope a few of you will be free to join in between 8pm and 9pm.

    The subject this week is ghost writing.
  • SilverLiningsSilverLinings
    Hopefully I can catch some of this, I've just completed a project as a ghost. ...whoOOOoooo!
  • CarolCarol
    That will be interesting.
  • Baggy BooksBaggy Books
    Just to clarify, is it ghostwriting or ghost writing (as in a ghost who writes)?

  • CarolCarol
    Well Patsy never specified. Patsy said ghostwriting and Maria said ghost writing- I assume writing ghost stories, but as they're both away with limited or no signal I'm willing to go with both or either.
  • Baggy BooksBaggy Books
    I need another photo.
  • Baggy BooksBaggy Books
    To be honest, I suspect they both meant ghostwriting. The two topics aren't connected and the conversations are going to be erratic unless you stick to one or the other.
  • CarolCarol
    Without knowing how much knowledge participants have of ghostwriting it's probably going to be best to see which one is popular.
  • CarolCarol
    28 minutes to this week's #writingchat.
  • Baggy BooksBaggy Books
    Photo's scheduled for 7.59...
  • CarolCarol
    Another good evening. #:-S

    Patsy and Maria can decide next week's subject as I won't be there-I'm in charge at speaker's night at the writers' club while chairman is on holiday...
  • Tiny NellTiny Nell
    Well done, Carol. You hosted superbly!
  • Baggy BooksBaggy Books
    It was fab!

    In case you missed it, here's the link to a ghostwriter:

    Just thinking out loud here, but it would be interesting to hear from a ghostwriter about how it actually works - perhaps Webbo could commission an article?

    Sorry guys, I was on my phone, so while I was there. My input (@millymollymo) was limited. I tried to get the importance of being aware of the contract over.
  • CarolCarol
    Thanks for your input SL.

    Yes, that came over, thanks for highlighting it.
  • Phots MollPhots Moll
    Thanks for taking care of things, Carol.
  • CarolCarol
    I would have been there anyway, so it was no problem, PM.
  • CarolCarol
    Another Wednesday, so it's #writingchat again.

    PM will be along later to mention tonight's subject...

    Sadly I'll be elsewhere tonight.
  • Baggy BooksBaggy Books
    Oh! Wednesday comes around so regularly. Almost caught me out!
  • Phots MollPhots Moll
    The theme tonight is ... distraction.

  • Baggy BooksBaggy Books
    Oh...
  • doradora
    Pfft!

    This week it's 'blogging'.
  • Baggy BooksBaggy Books
    Blogging...?

    That's a tough one. I'll have to give it some thought.
  • CarolCarol
    Tonight 8-9 pm the #writingchat subject is blogging.

    Share your tips, good and bad experiences...
  • JediyaJediya
    I think me and Loz as @LM_Towton will be joining you tonight :)
  • CarolCarol
    Brilliant- the more the merrier. Just remember to use the #writingchat hashtag. Helps when we try to catch-up later or tomorrow if people miss it. :)
  • CarolCarol
    PM, do you find you get more followers on a Wednesday, and during the #writingchat session.
  • Baggy BooksBaggy Books
    Sorry I couldn't really be there.

    :bz
  • CarolCarol
    Your contributions were noted. :-))
  • Baggy BooksBaggy Books
    90% were scheduled. I like to plan my attack.

    Yes - but most unfollow shortly afterwards if I don't immediately follow back. I used to follow anyone who followed me, but I've since unfollowed a lot of people I never interacted with and many then unfollowed me. Not much point having followers who're only interested in a follow back - I'd rather have less but for them to be people who might sometimes see my tweets.

    A lot of them it's clear they just want to build up numbers, but a few I'm interested in- from looking at their tweets- even if I don't interact with them personally.

    I probably only follow one or two a week, and they're mainly people I know anyway.
