If I mailed a digest sized Mr. Emergency #3 myself it would likely average out to about $25 in postage and envelopes. That's assuming the record turnout is matched. Wade Busby I review for this site and for Self Publisher! Magazine. Reviews ARE happening now! Feel free to email me for contact info.
We're actually interested in having chats for each night of the week, for those who wanna drop in for some instant discussions. If we can't have transcripts for those additional sessions then so be it-- we don't need a secretary to transcribe every nightly chat (if we had one each night), although it would be nice to have such transcripts. We can't view these events as a chore. It's about networking!
