Material should be related to the Beltane theme in some way. Think of the turning wheel of life, Spring, Summer, Renaissance or Pagan or Wiccan writers and topics. 

Your host for this one-hour literary open mic will be Freda Frostbite. Please feel free to IM Freda if you want more information about this event.

 Mondays, 2pm PST

This is the Tuesday chat that has been hosted for some time by Dot Matrix. Freda will host for as long as the group will have her. Please come prepared to chat in text or (if you must) in local voice. Topics will be determined as we gather week by week. The LM will take you to the front door at the main house. Come on up the stairs to find us.


Wednesdays 5pm PST
Beta Readings: Ermengarde The Expansive And The Year of Long Light
grid.kitely.com:8002:Freda's Fantasy

 Freda (Stephanie Mesler in real life) published Ermengarde the Expansive, the chapbook, a few years ago.. Now, she is finishing the first draft of a full-length Ermengarde novel. It's ready for beta-listeners and Freda hopes you will be one of them. In that first Ermengarde book, we met a plump princess who couldn't get her father's respect, even when she caught a falling star with her bare hands and slew a dragon all by herself. In the novel to be shared aloud in Kitely, Ermengarde becomes Queen, marries badly, saves the world from destruction, frees an oppressed species from slavery, and frees herself of unreasonable expectations.

Beta-readings will be held in Freda's Fairytale cottage at the foot of her Magic Mountain. Use the LM to get to Freda's Fantasy and then select Fairytale from the TP pad menu located at the landing.

If you would like a free copy of the original Ermengarde The Expansive chapbook, send email to StephanieMeslerWrites@gmail,com.

Mrs. Piozzi's Soirees Thursdays at 5:30 PM PST Rocca Sorrentina, Second Life   Hester Lynch Thrale Piozzi is back from Tivoli and getting over her great loss among friends on Rocca Sorrentina in Second Life.  Being born with a stiff upper lip, Hester has decided the best way forward is, well, forward .  In order to re-establish her place in local society, Mrs. Piozzi requests the honor of your company this Thursday night at 5:30 PM PST.  At that time, her selected friends will gather for social conversation (RP).  The topic on Hester's mind is human flight.  Recently (January 1785), two gentlemen - one French, one American -- crossed the English channel in a hot air balloon.  Hester is fascinated with the notion that men and - Dare she imagine it? - women might one day fly about in balloons, traveling from place to place untethered and free!  Please come to discuss this and other topics on our minds in this very modern age, May of 1785.
