I didn't see this thread until just now... I see the deadline for signing up and in was on June 30th... don't suppose you could make an exception for those of us who are apparently blind in one eye and short-sighted out of the other?

I wonder if it would be possible to NOT put people's names on their chapters until a week or two after the whole thing is done and posted as a whole. That way, the writing is taken at face value. The popularity (or lack thereof) of the authors isn't a factor when the chapters are being read.
Plus, I think a "Taaa-DAHH!" reveal might be fun.

We'll discuss this in private. Some feel strongly that each writer should have their 15 minutes of fame (it's more like 24 hours), because it's meaningful...and others don't care and will love this idea. We'll vote when we have our private group meeting place - promised. ;)

Wilmington DE, strange little place.
Delaware , Wilmington has a long history , lots of ghost stories, like all east-coast towns.

It also has government sites, experimental stations, rumors of underground bases and research places .
DOW chemical and the whole DuPont Co. were based here. we have rumors of a Langley base in
New Castle DE.; The TV show "The Pretender" was based here. . we have Indian burial sites.

We are also ....unknown... to many people...we are known as the:: generic state
everyone had heard of "Wilmington Delaware" but no one knows anything about it (us)

Tiny Lily has asked that the general discussions for story ideas etc are held off until the writing group has been established--this will be separate from the rest of the MB--so the audience will enjoy the story as fresh and completely new once it's released. :)
