I'm gonna give ya'll a snippet of Chapter One, I've got more (much more) but I'm not going to be able to get it done by tomorrow. I was given a large project to work on at work; so I'm doing ten hour days now and will be at work all day Saturday as well. Really cutting into my writing time.
God damn I need a laptop. You guys wanna donate to a "Buy Zovo a Laptop" fund? If you all pitch in it'll be like $20.00 each. . .

I'll pay my share out of the proceeds from my first wildly popular novel. . . which I'll never finish without a laptop.

That begs the question. Would, if one of the members here to be publish, anyone pour money into making AWR better? Our own website, more features, a real -place- for writers to flourish?
Or should we just ignore it and hope we don't get 20349204392349 new members flooding our memberships?

If AWR were to really take off at any point, like, have significantly more members than we currently do, I'll be getting us an actual, proper website. But as it is, I don't see the reason for it.

I wouldn't want the fan boys (and girls) cluttering up the place.

Also you know, even if one of us was published, I'd doubt we would exactly be throwing money around.

Yeah, unless one of us published something EXTREMELY popular.
... but frankly, let's not go getting our hopes up on that, gang.

If I ever decide to pursue something publishable again, I'm totally making some people duke it out.

I'd prolly buy your book but I wouldn't be throwing money at people I've never met in my life. No offense.
