Loners_OT – the Lone Writer SIG’s “Off-Topic” Listserv

Loners_OT is a discussion group for all the off-topic posts that members of the STC Lone Writers SIG want to share, but don’t want to post to the SIG’s own listserv. This group is managed independently on the Yahoo! Groups service, which is free of charge but is supported by advertising.

Although the discussions on Loners_OT are unmoderated, membership applications are not processed automatically to prevent spamming.

If you’d like to join this group please email the Loners_OT listowner, David Farbey, at david@farbey.co.uk. Make sure you include your real name, and the email address you want to use for Loners_OT membership. If you try and subscribe automatically, David will contact you to verify your personal details before approving your membership.
