Martin John here. I've spent the last week or so devouring this site and feel it's time to rear my head in the forum. Great to be among so many like minded souls.
Ahoy!
Can I just thank all who are contributing to the forum. It will work because you all interact and give each other support and cameraderie, essential in a fragmented freelance world. Tell us what you need or want to know and we will try to provide it.
Julian on behalf of the
TwelvePoint.com Editorial Team
Thanks - look forward to being part of the Twelve Point community. Cheers
just joined and it seems - even in the blog - that all the posts are months old, going back to last autumn. In an industry which changes so fast, there's something wrong here. Where are the weekly - monthly comments relevant to nearly May 2009? Sites like this grow and thrive on the energy of members, so be involved or wither.
I would like to take advantage of the group discount for the Cheltenham screenwriters festival '09. Are there any groups set up who need any further numbers? Please let me know asap as that final date is looming!
ktootgodwit is right that the blog is slow - mea culpa partly, as I should be doing weekly (at least) blogs but there is so much else to do like getting articles commissioned, seeking advertising and sponsors, that the moment passes. I am not a regular blo reader so to me a blog is a bit lik an article. I know I am old and of the wrong generation, so maybe some of you will start blogging.
Julian
YOU ARE NOT OLD!!!!!!!
Take a look at this thread and put your name down:

Welcome, ktootgodwit. We have some good bloggers lined up. Please bear with us - we're making many changes to the website at the moment.
Hi Caroline, thank you for this but when I try I get denied access! Any ideas?
Hi Emily,
The Forum is only open to paid members. It could be that you have opened an account but not completed the membership procedure?
If you are a full member let me know and I'll investigate.
Hi Caroline, I am a full paid member as far as I know. Would be grateful if you could investigate.
Hi Emily,
Mystery solved. Your TwelvePoint.com subscription expired at the end of March (though I think we gave you a couple of weeks' grace). I believe our last reminder email was sent on 24th April. Would you mind checking your spam filter to make sure that TwelvePoint emails get through?
If you'd care to renew your membership we'll have you up and running in no time. It's a bargain at £29!
Aah I see, had no idea. Will renew asap. Thank you Caroline.
Then rush over to the other thread and get in touch with the wonderful Gwenhyver, who has taken on the 'team leader' mantle.
And hello to you too Martin - welcome to the Forum! I think (hope) you'll find us a friendly lot, each with our own traits and characteristics, but we all get along fine. So please pull up a chair . . . and join in the discussion topics or ask questions if you need any help or advice!
