Hi everyone!

I hope you are all well and enjoying life.
I miss the days when this was a vibrant, thriving community. Not sure quite what has happened, other than Facebook becoming the be all and end all of Internet groups, and maybe everyone is just busy in their day to day lives. Of course, maybe it's still all happening in the chat room ( where I can't go cos I'm on an iPad)!
I was chatting its PipSqueak the other day on how Mels could be boosted up again, and one idea was creating a Facebook group to supplement it...since that's where everyone seems to be these days anyway! Nothing beats the forum and story/poetry boards IMO, so I don't mean as a replacement, just in addition to.
So, thoughts?
Would you join a MelsWebs Facebook group? What do you think, Mel?

Love Mandy.

I understand where you are coming from WW but Im not sure it would make that much difference to me in that all the people I really want to be in contact with from Mels I already have on my FB. Does that make sense?

To me Mels was always more than just a Chat Room, it was the Forums and the sharing of poems and stories that made it what it was. I know there are still a few people valiantly contributing but it without the large, varied and vibrant community of writers we used to have it just aint the same for me.

I looked for it tonight and couldn't find it.. Star made it ages and ages ago so maybe it got lost when FB groups changed over to the new format. I'll make another one now and post the information.

I think because it's set as a secret group, people can only be added, not add themselves. I couldn't find it either but Tracey kindly added me.
CindyT, pm me your fb name if you want and I will add you.

Yes, to protect people's anonymity I was asked to change it to secret. It will not availably be seen by the naked eye (or naked link) at this time, therefore you need to be friends with someone in order to find it, which kind of puts a hinge on accessibility to all women who would like to find it, BUT keeps others safe from being 'outed' in case anyone randomly decides to google "MELSWEBS" and finds the facebook member list...

While it's set to secret (as it is), noone can see the list and everything that's said is 100% private.

if you PM me (or some of the other ladies here, I'm sure), I can give you my email address to find me on FB.
