Who are you coposting with?

[Jane]

Prizes for the person with the longest list!  (Well, not really :laughing5:)

Mine's a short list:

Amanda

Kaysea

Rochelle

Roxanne

Vix[/list]
I also have eleven writers in my 'Stalled' folder, where coposts have simply stopped or have never been posted.   :dontknow:

What about you?

Vix
Kaysea
Emma

Wow, that's pretty depressing! I really need to get my bootie in gear...

[Jane]

Looks like the non-existent prizes are mine, so far!

[Vix]

Let's see. . .
Jane
Kaysea
Allison
Emma
Becki

I've just finished one with Rochelle but nothing going at the moment.
And several are stalled.

*sigh*
I've appealed for coposters but only the usuals reply (not that I don't appreciate that, but it would be nice to have some more involvement).

[Kaysea]

Um, currently or in the last week? LOL

I've had quite a few finish and go to the lists in the past week, but these ones are still going:

Jane
Vix
Rochelle
Allison
Mikel
Eimi - on hold due to LOA
Paula
Amanda
Avril - on hold due to LOA
Dana - on hold due to LOA

[emma]

Lemme see...

Vix
Allison
Paula
Amanda
Cali - on hold due to LOA
Rochelle - they need posting ;)
Heather - on hold thanks to LOA


But I always need more (a not very subtle hint!) Jane, Kaysea, why aren't we posting???

You come up with a good reason for our characters to get together, I'll do the start!

Hey, counting the LOA ones isn't on!  But still, it looks like Kaysea might be be getting the prizes.  If there were any.

[Paula]

Let's see:

Eimi (we usually have several on the way)
Emma (several)
Rochelle
Kaysea
Amanda (finished almost)
Allison (...I think... unless we finished already)
Rox (It's a multi-poster thing)
Cali (haven't heard of her for a long time)
Clancey (likewise)
 
- anybody I forgot?

-Then I have few co-posts that had completely disappeared in /between/.

I need more *hint, hint* I tend to post with same people all the time.

[Vix]

Oops -- forgot Amanda on my list. Or did we finish that one?

Basically, I've been in this club since February and there are people in it I've never coposted with because either they've been LOA or they only copost with each other. Sad, isn't it? This club is nowhere near as active as it could be, especially when (according to the newsetter listing) people keep joining all the time.

It is sad, I've noticed it too. I've been member for umpteeth years, and there are still people I've not co-posted with. But what can you do when only certain people reply to co-posts? :(

I think I tagged my last reply, but I'll double check!

[PastMember]

Oh, and according to my copost box I have coposts going with:

Some of these I need to reply to and some I've been waiting a while for replies cause folks are LIA/LOA - I've marked them accordingly!

Kaysea - both, waiting on repy and need to reply :jg:
Jane - waiting on reply
Emma - both, waiting on reply and need to reply

This arrived overnight.  You're only waiting on a reply because you emptied your in-box while I was asleep! :laughing5:

How many writers do you reckon there really are around?  Not just always-around but still committed to writing here, even if they're on LOA?  Twenty, maybe?  I always reckon on 25% of the writing pool being on LOA at any one time which should leave us about 15 coposting right now.

Looking over the lists we have Allison, Amanda, Becki, Emma, Jane, Kaysea, Paula, Rochelle, Roxanne, and Vix who are around for sure.  That's a nice big writing group, even if not as big as the membership pages would suggest.  Clubs have survived for years on less than 10 writers!

The problem comes when there's a major plotline, one that has been set for a definite date, and what should occur doesn't. Right now we're in month six, Hatching at RBW is supposed to be day 3, so basically any characters who might be up for Impression or those related to them, are on hold. That's out of our hands. I'm just starting to get to know one of my characters there and -- Impress or not -- I'd like to continue that exploration but can't. I find that very discouraging.
