Salon post: March 9
I mentioned in a lock post, there was no post last week because I was still getting over being miserably sick.
Welcome to this week's salon post!
Topic of the week
Getting conversations going is something that I think about a lot, between online spaces like this, being staff on a Pagan forum, and just generally.
I've mentioned in a locked post that I've noticed a significant drop off in comments on the salon posts, and I'm wondering if there are things I (or other people who were interested) could do to help.
Is it timing? Starting discussions a bit differently? Something else?
What I've been up to:
Having finished the Classic Doctor Who rewatch, I am now a season into New Who. (With a bit of skipping episodes, since I've seen the first couple of seasons several times in the not too distant past.)
House rules:
This is a public post, feel free to encourage other people to drop by, just note the 'if posting anonymously, include a name people can call you in responses' rule.
* Consider this a conversation in my living room, only with a lot more seating. I reserve the right to redirect, screen, and otherwise moderate stuff, but would vastly prefer not to have to.
* If you don't have a DW account or want to post anonymously, please include a name we can call you in this particular post. (You can say AnonymousOne or your favourite colour or whatever. Just something to help keep conversations clear.)
* If you've got a question or concern, feel free to PM me.

I also spent six weeks flat on my back with no functioning brain cells...I never had a fever, so it can't have been the flu, but I felt hit by a truck anyway. Mono? I don't know. So I got back in the habit of reading a book or two a day, which has been very nice. My mother had never read any Heyer at all! So we've been doing that. Bless the BPL and its enormous collection.
My booklog posts have become very terse for some reason, but if anybody wants to read them, there they are.

(And I am glad the flat on your back at least allowed for reading, and also was not in your busy season.)

(Ugh. Yes. It could have been worse...and I didn't lose my voice this time. I ALWAYS lose my voice. I think getting a voice therapist was a good move.)
