jenettI 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.

There are definitely things I don't like in each era of the show, but there are also a lot of things I do like.
