This will be my first time on one of your calls this evening. I am on UK time. Really looking forward to the call and learning. I've only been a member for one month today and published my first newsletter on September 18th so I have a lot to learn for sure. I've published 9 stories so far and its all a learning process for me lol. Really appreciate being part of your conversations.

Oh, of course. And this one is in the middle of the night for you in Australia. You’re gracious to even say that. As this grows we can muster enough of a crowd to justify a full section to be accessible from Honolulu to Perth.

Barbara - As I am ALWAYS unable to attend a Tuesday meeting, I'm hoping that there is a video of the sessions. Looking forward to our chat together on Wednesday, 9:30am PDT. Cheers, Celia

You bet. I'm afraid that for every date we pick someone can't make it.

At this week's meeting I'm going to propose that starting in January we shift to two sessions each month each on different days (to your point) and different times (to benefit our members down under.)

Robin and I have been talking about combining Office Hours and Roundtable discussions using Zoom breakout rooms. We need practice a bit at that, but I love the principle.

At 4PM from here on the West Coast of the Americas we can reach from the East Coast (a civilized 7PM) to dawn in Western Australia (7AM).

The 'Atlantic' time is accessible as far West as Hawaii (at 7AM) and East to stretches to continental Europe at 7PM and only 8PM in Istanbul. It works!

Can't wait to finally meet you, Celia! TTYL

Thank you again, @AnneYoungAU for letting me use your account as an example in today's Office Hours section.

Thanks for inspiring me to do more with Substack. The next major skill I want to master is creating video content. I've done a couple videos for YouTube using Zoom to record myself and then used the YouTube editor. I've used Zoom and my husband edited it with Corel Video Studio, but I don't want to keep bugging him. I've used his voice, my voice, and an AI voice. Canva has some video stuff but while it's on my to-do list, I haven't explored them yet. I'd love to hear what others have already discovered.
