Project in a muddle? Then what you need is the Huddle. The invaluable weekly resource where you can road-test your work.

Every Saturday @AgentPete cordially invites you to share your work in progress, his literary insights and industry experience, or just to join in the fun. If you've yet to attend one of these legendary gatherings, then don't hesitate. You'll be made feel more than welcome and chances are you'll likely learn lots too.

So why not submit a piece for assessment? Whether that's some opening pages (1000 words max please), a blurb or synopses, an outline, book proposal - or indeed whatever - then benefit from having it critiqued in real time by Pete and the collective; something you'd pay serious money for elsewhere, but that rather amazingly is included as part of your Full Membership!

Submitting's not mandatory, though. You can just bring yourself and share your thoughts on the pieces others submit, or if you prefer, just get involved in the general chat.

Event Details: Saturday July 13th at 5.00 pm UK time.

In addition to submissions, Pete will also be happy to take any publishing related questions on all aspects of books and the industry in general. So go on, ask him anything. He's a regular mine of information. Oh, and of course Huddles are also a great opportunity to network with fellow Litopians in person.

Who Can Take Part?

As mentioned above, Huddles are TOTALLY FREE and an absolutely incredible resource that comes with your Litopia FULL MEMBERSHIP package. So for less than $10 bucks (monthly membership cost) then quite simply there is nothing out there to match it for value.

To reserve your place at this stage simply add your name below in this thread. You will then be included in the submissions Private Group in the Huddle Hangout (created Weds / Thurs). It will contain the meeting link and it is where you may attach your work.

Members are encouraged to join from 4.30pm onwards to test your connections and chat to fellow Litopians before things get underway. The virtual coffee is the best on the Internet. It ought to be as you're making it ;)


We use ZOOM which you can join in any browser, but you may find you get a rather better experience by downloading the Zoom App
 
I'm almost afraid to sign up. There seems to be a curse on my sat. afternoons, but please Jonny.

Hope you can make it this week, PJ.

Would you like the item from two weeks ago posted again? If it's still as was I'll do it for you when the thread goes live. If edited, send me the latest version and I'll post that as first item on the agenda.
 
There’s currently a problem when Jonny tries to invite participants to the private thread in the Huddle Hangout.

This ought to be resolved by tomorrow (i.e. you’ll have joining information and see any submissions by then). However, if that’s not possible, we’ll find a different way to get this info to everyone before Saturday.
 
For those who have signed up for this week's session and are waiting for the private thread to appear.

Our post-software update has temporarily stopped me being able to create one. I hope the situation will be rectified soon. But in the meantime, please accept my apologies for the inconvenience.

Yes, please. Nothing new. Steve Martin said having kids was like opening a bowling alley in your brain. I had forgotten how apt. A household of 6 adult "children" . a toddler and a 9 mos old. It's lovely chaos, but CHAOS.
 
I've added you to the group, Carol.

We are having to do the admin a little differently this week. So look for the link in your direct messages.
