Sennydreadful/Eli/Any other authors -
I apologise if my tone came across as hectoring, it wasn't meant to and I totally understand that people are busy and don't always have time for forums.
Part of the reason I'm being so loud about this is to persuade people that we should reach out to the authors and make them aware it's going on and invite them to come in say hi, plug if they want to. I know people are only on this list if they've posted a fair bit to begin with, I'm fairly sure no one's deliberately ignoring it just because. And to say that hey, I *do* want to hear from the authors - I know that some people don't want to overstep the line, or be seen as sticking their oar in unwantedly. Well, I want to see oars in the water

I guess my argument is, as much as anything, "Hey, let's make sure all these authors know, so they can come and join in the fun and not miss out an opportunity". I haven't expressed it too well.
p.s. Eli, I haven't forgotten about that review, life's been busy but hopefully you'll get it soon.
