yesterday we had a meeting.
we had to read our homework and we tried to spot the mistake (see the post below) in each others writing.
it went like this:
i read my piece aloud, and each time anyone spotted/suspected a mistake he raised his hand.
not all the mistakes were found, and i came to the conclusion that this game is most effective when the piece is printed and made available for free reading for everyone.
for one of my groupmate had had the chance to read it before i started reading and she kept rasing her hand, and raised it at every other or third sentence - just as often as the mistakes were written in the text.
it was fun.

we also talked about the presentation of the second anthology which will come out in softcover at the end of May.
for almost all of us, the idea of sitting in front of a somehow larger audience (we expect about 150-200 people) and talking about writing seems frightening.

I think it's much better to work from printed copies, which are returned to the author at the end.
most definitely, Charles.
