Ok, when we get closer I'll start thinking of ways we can put it all together and make it a club activity.

I also like the idea of incorporating some article learning or even a separate meeting for that.
We're working on what we can do to accommodate both the impromptu writers and those who like more time to work. You are always free to post anything you write to the forum...except SexIs articles. You can post a link to your articles here though. I'm pretty sure that'd be ok.

Maybe next month I'll set up a good topic and we can take the week before the meeting to write then use the meeting to sort of piece together the writing....or do a showcase sort of thing. Hmmmm lots to think about...

Sorta kinda not really.


You can link to the article but it MUST have a discussion point in the thread. Anything else is link spam.

Good point....maybe if the authors could give a sort of background to the article. Like a sort of this is why I wrote the article...a sort of teaser?

Am I allowed to get help writing an article if I want to submit it for a contest?

Even that's pushing it. It needs to be "okay, have you read this? What do you think about this article? Do you agree with my point of view?"


Pretty much there's no good way to self-promote yourself publicly with this kind of thing (which is why we don't allow it for reviews).
