Samizdat meetings

We’ve had two submission meetings of our collaborative editing magazine and they’ve gone far better than I thought they would. So far, attendees have all been friends of friends, so we’re quite close in terms of age (my age) and nationality (Irish, but we do have one Chinese). But now we’ve established something of a workable routine we’re going to advertise our existence and hopefully draw in authors and photographers of all ages and backgrounds.

The quality of entries has also been much higher than I expected. Not from me, though. I drew something up in short order for the second meeting, which I really regret doing. It wasn’t ready for release, and I noticed after distributing it that I’d missed a superfluous word. And therefore felt like a rank amateur. For the record, my entry is here, with the mistake intact, and the state of unreadiness rigorously maintained.

AWVC uses the Markdown formatting system, a very simple way to format your comments. Whitespace is converted directly. Enclose a phrase with asterisks to italicise, and two asterisks (**) to embolden. A good introduction to the Markdown format is available here.

Cleverly, though, the preview is basically useless (it will just show what you've typed). If you want a real preview, enter your text into the Markdown Dingus, then re-enter it here.
