Introduction
Long-term technogeek here. I surprised myself last year by writing something longer than 10 pages, with actual plot and character. Unfortunately it was an erotic novel, so it's time to try again with something I can show people :)
What do you like about writing?
I have read about 3 books a week since age 2. Time to start contributing, I say.

Nancy Kulyk posted a greeting for Steve Rapaport
"Hi Steve! It's Nancy here from Canada. I attended my first Writer's meeting in early Feb. at the Waverley Pub. You and I chatted about our travels and how alike our glasses looked. I learned the group focuses only on writing and nothing about publishing to get our writing out there to be read. I do need an editor for my book. You struck me as a possible strong candidate based on your answers at my first meeting. Would you be interested in editing? I look forward to hearing from you."

"Ha ha, Colin, gotcha! http://xkcd.com/609/ This page which you probably haven't spent 3 days on yet, lists a bunch of works that are deconstructive (and therefore very genre-savvy) and lots of fun for tropers...."

Steve Rapaport started a new discussionCloud Atlas
"My lord, Charlie, this is a great find. Thank you. My favorite review blurb: Grand and elaborate as it is, Cloud Atlas offers too many powerful insights to be dismissed as a mere exercise in style. Exactly. ... MoreAs elaborate and clever as the form is, (and nicely laid out in parallel by Frobisher's Sextet) it's just an excellent supporting architecture for a set of insights that would be lost if he'd stuck to just one setting, one time, one story. The sweep through history is the only appropriate setting for his themes of predation and savagery versus civilization and kindness. Wow. "
