Thank you so much. Just what I need... two new Yahoo groups. What would I do without you, Em? :roll:

I am not sure how busy those groups are right now? I must go have a look.

Don't know why this was showing on my screen as a new post... It's two years old! They don't seem busy at all, so that's fine.

Forumer's ways are mysterious.

Hi does anyone know if these yahoo groups are still active? Only I’d like to join, but it’s not worth me signing up for yahoo if there’s nothing going on, and I can’t see for myself without an account. Oh, and if the groups are dead, can anyone recommend ones that, well, aren’t? Thanks

Erotic Romancers isn't doing anything. Slash and Hack is open, but rather quiet. If you write m/m, PM me and I'll give you contact info for a crit/beta group for m/m authors. :)

Yeah the yahoo group Erotic Romancers is pretty much dead.... so i have two chapters of a story I've been working on, i haven't been able to get any feedback what so ever yet and I'm worried it may not be as good as i think it to be... its 5148 words and I'm wondering where I can post it...

I would suggest perhaps posting it in sections in the same thread to encourage people. I have noticed that more than 3000 words at once tends not to get as much of a response. Or you might try posting and excerpt and also asking for a one-to-one beta reader?

hi
Thank you so much.
