We had a good turnout of 9 expect-to-be authors last night, including two new people. Welcome, Sara and Janice. Make sure you mark off the 3rd Monday of each month for our meetings.
Carla and I showed our handiwork in the photography field.
Rich passed around some info on the WV writers organization. The link is on this blog.
We discussed being able to upload PDF files on our blog. It seems like we can upload videos and images, but we can't upload PDF files. We can always add a link to a site that stores them on the WEB. I'll work on getting us some free space where we can store our stories.
For those of you who do not know how to create PDF documents, here are the directions to follow:
It is very easy to convert your word documents or anything else to a pdf file. Go to this WEB site:
http://www.primopdf.com/index.aspx and download the free software on the left side of the screen.
This will give you another option on your PRINT function. When you have a file you want to convert to PDF, just go to the Print file and click on PrimoPDF. Everything is done automatically.
A PDF file is a good way to attach a document to an e-mail because there are so many different formats that you can write the document in and, if your respondent doesn't have the same SW package, they may not be able to open it.
There was a post made this morning outlining a scenario for a short story to work on before the next meeting. It looks like it could be an interesting exercise.
