I don't heavily participate in all forums at all times. Over the last month, my contributions here have been significantly less than they would normally be, likewise at my own book forum. However, my participation in a few other forums has increased. My job involves working on the Internet so...

How about you give it a try and make up your own mind? ;) Chick Lit has been out a lot longer then Helen Fielding has been dishing it out, and that includes the article that the book was spawned from - and I guess something like Pride and Prejudice could be classed as Chick lit. To pick one...

Egyptian Dreams is one of the better forums around at the moment. KingTutOne used to be good but seems to be over run with the less mature members of late and so the appeal has gone from it. As for general history, and for most other things, check out Able2Know - extremely useful site...

I read an article in the Guardian written by Maggie when she had just released My Lover's Lover, and the article was fantastic, so much so I had to go out and get the book. I got about 100 pages and gave up - really couldn't get into the writing, the characters or anything else. PM me...

sigh - if only I could see my desktop. I have an emoticon stuck there which I accidentally set to the background one time...otherwise it's a mixture of files that I am working on at any given time and gets cleared every once in a while. ho hum...

no problem. You may notice in a thread that the data of the post is shown at the bottom left - under the users avatar. There is an image of a page besides it which is blue when the post is old, but changes colour, to yellow, when the post is new. This helps you to easily find which posts...
