Have you ever had an imaginary friend as a child. Would you like to write under an imagined characters name.

I have been asked enough time "what is a chat room moderator" that I felt the need to give a description of same.

Pre-moderator
Any member may become one. They are in short moderators in training for the moderators/host program

Training consists of
four(4) open chat rooms( no theme)

you will be evaluated on each room. No pre moderator will be left in a room on their own. The director or co director will be monitoring you and at the same time coaching you.

I would like to invite those that wish to host/moderate a chat room to contact China Blue or Nichole
for details.
You will be trained
and you will not be left alone there will always be someone to guide you along during your training period

There are very few guidelines you will need to know this will be explained during training.

Have you ever wondered how one gets their work published. Perhaps what was the inspiration for them to author a book.
I invite you all to come and hear what two authors have to say about writing, inspiration and publishing
