This message has been posted to the British Columbia forum and the British Columbia-Vancouver forum, so you may see it more than once.

Thanks to one of the other Municipal Liasions, karalianne, we have a chat room for British Columbia. There are not currently separate chat rooms for different cities, but if there is a lot of use or demand, I can see about getting subdomains set up.

The first official chat will be on Sunday, April 6, from 8 to 10pm. I may be online Friday or Saturday evening (during April, Script Frenzy IS my weekend party destination! :-) ) around the same time, but I am not sure if other people will be around. You are certainly welcome to use the chat room at other times, if you happen to be online anyway.

The chat rooms are all-ages friendly, so please keep discussions clean.

People can join or leave the chat at any time. For April 6th, I'll designate the first 15 minutes or so as meet and greet time, where people can check in and say hello. Then, I'll set a timer for a half-hour "word war" ("page war"). At that time, your main focus should be on adding information to your script. People can still comment in the chat, or they can chat if they wish, but don't be surprised if you don't get a response from anyone else.

At the end of the half-hour, I'll announce that time is up, and people can compare how much progress they've made. It is completely up to each person how much information to share with other participants. YOu can simply say that you are happy with what you accomplished during that time, or not happy, if that is the case.

We'll have a 15-minute break, and then start another half-hour writing session.

I hope to "see" people on Sunday.
