Saturday sees our weekly Writers' Huddle, and at the bottom of this post, you will find a link to the Huddle Hangout Forum. If you wish to be included in this week's session, then simply post your name below (here in this thread) with an optional message along the lines of (Yes please. Count me in... You betcha... etc.)
When you add your name, I will include you in the Private Group in the Huddle Hangout. Then, when you click the link below, to take you to the Hangout, you just select the post with the relevant date, wherein the Zoom Meeting Link will found in the first post of that group thread. Please note, when added to the group you should also receive a notification. So you now have two ways of getting to the session on the day.
This sign up thread will be posted here every week.
IMPORTANT:
To avoid any doubt, you can be sure Pete's intention is to hold a Huddle every week. The only exceptions to this might be unforeseen circumstances. Should that ever be the case, a post informing The Colony will appear in Cafe Life.
If you've not attended one before - what happens in Huddles?
Put simply, every week when the Private Group thread goes live (normally Thursday AM - UK time) you can post work for @AgentPete and fellow Huddlers to offer critique and suggestions on. These submissions can be anything - from the opening pages of your work in progress, to a blurb, synopsis or query letter. Nothing is out of bounds. General questions on the publishing industry are encouraged and if you spot something you feel is worth sharing with the group, then that's also welcomed.
So don't be shy, there's no pressure and you don't need to submit work. You can simply attend just to watch and listen or help with the critique. The atmosphere is completely relaxed and there is anyways lots of fun.
