Dear all,
From this month we are approaching the Huddle South sign up and attendance process in a more streamlined way by cutting out a layer of (often confusing) admin.
Below, in this post, you will see a link to the Huddle Hangout Forum. If you wish to be included in the coming Huddle South this Wednesday then simply post your name below (in this thread) with an optional message.
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 simply select the post with the relevant date, wherein the Zoom Meeting Link will be in the first post of that group thread.
This notification thread will be posted here every month from now. The old sign up thread process will be no longer used!
IMPORTANT:
To avoid any doubt, you can be sure Pete's intention is to hold a Huddle the first Wednesday of every month. 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 a Huddle?
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.
