Finally, the new Board is ready. We're hoping to go live tomorrow, so that when you stop in, you'll see the new structure. I think it will be so much better. Today, the ladies at RD are trying to figure out how to provide a seemless link to the Board, and then back this Board, which will be archived. If they don't figure it out, then that will be the only think that will hold up the unveiling tomorrow.... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (PatLewin) http://romancedesigns.yuku.com/topic/483 Tue, 12 Oct 2004 08:25:34 GMT <![CDATA[ Happy Birthday Pat ]]> http://romancedesigns.yuku.com/topic/487/t/Happy-Birthday-Pat.html

I'm on my way out of town again. Though, just for the weekend this time. I'm going to the Georgia Romance Writers Moonlight and Magnolia Conference. This is one of my favorites, because most of my closest freinds live in Atlanta. So, keep the Board going for me, and I'll tell you all about it on Monday!

One of things I want to be able to do is subdivide the Board. As it is, everything is a bit tumbled together.

Sometimes, it seems that we use the term to cover everything that is fictional and not somberly serious in literature, movies, TV or other entertainment.

But, for me, there is a lot of material, even in genre fiction, that I just can't consider "escapist", because it reminds me too much of the way things really are.

In mystery and crime fiction, for example, stories that... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (C Shannon Davidson) http://romancedesigns.yuku.com/topic/507 Thu, 09 Sep 2004 05:22:26 GMT <![CDATA[ What's the last book you read that..... ]]> http://romancedesigns.yuku.com/topic/504/t/What-s-the-last-book-you-read-that-.html Really surprised you with the way the plot developed? ]]> feeds@yuku.com (C Shannon Davidson) http://romancedesigns.yuku.com/topic/504 Tue, 07 Sep 2004 10:28:39 GMT <![CDATA[ "Wieland" by Charles Brockton Brown ]]> http://romancedesigns.yuku.com/topic/520/t/-quot-Wieland-quot-by-Charles-Brockton-Brown.html
