Every now and then I like to bring up the "duet club" idea again, because I'm always thrilled with the fruits of our common labours and I'd love to see some more action involving spontaneous duets between people who may or may not know each other very well!

In fact, the last time we had this, I made a new and valuable friend---and it had a very positive impact on me personally.  I'm sure a lot of other people had fun with it, too...

So what do you all say?  ....Please?

I say let's du-et

What are you my god? You touch me like you are my god
What are you my twin? You affect me like you are my twin.

Go Alanis!

I'm there....
The last time, I also made a new friend that has impacted my life, and was able to be a part of a write that I was bnever good enough to do on my own.

I AM smiling...
And tht fact should be enough to cause you to worry.

Tell a FEW of your senior member friends to come on over and sign up and I'll choose them. I'll do it fairly - names on pieces of paper and chosen at random.

Ok. Deadline to sign up is Sunday night. I'll have the list of duet partners on Monday and you'll have until next Friday night to post!

How's that?

"In fact, the last time we had this, I made a new and valuable friend---and it had a very positive impact on me personally.  I'm sure a lot of other people had fun with it, too..."

I'm glad you had a positive experience, but though I too got to know and like a new person, I paid a harsh price for my participation, and I won't let myself in for it again. Maybe if there's a time when I am no longer being overtly attacked via the gossip mill I will consider it, but that doesn't seem to have happened, even this long afterward.

I had a great time with this too--I made great friends both times I "played"--but unfortunately I'm not too reliable these days, as I'm never too sure what I'm doing from one day to the next.

But I'll be looking for the results.

And btw, had I not been paired with Local Parasite the first time out, I'm sure I would have been too intimidated to ask to write with him--which would have been a shame for me. He's much fun and very smart--so congratulations in advance for anyone lucky enough to be paired with him.

You're in for a treat and an education.

I'm too late... but that's okay... after asking and being refused (or ignored) too many times, I wouldn't risk participation anyway... I'll just wait and read. *S*

Oh, gosh..

and Darn!

Heh.

I'd be up for a duet, as long as it wouldn't hurt my brain.

I think I'm a little late, though.

Ratleader, I'm not sure I understand. Were you harassed by emails concerning the duets?
