Sorry, we don't have other groups to refer people to... it's just us here doing speculative fiction. We do get some historical fantasy and I write a lot of time travel stuff with historical elements.

I'm not sure if you're asking to join or asking if we know of similar groups. If you do wish to join, we will need a bit more information about you.

Hi,For some reason this posting does not let me enter answers via gamil on apple but Ill repost and CC here.   
Not long after submitting things went south. We had a family member dying. Frankly taken the past year to get back to some semblance of normalcy, was offline for many months and major issues with neighbor out of control...  It seems I did not get or see the reply, but been distracted.  
I do find this site tool a bit awkward and starting easy to miss things.  But I can see its a low maintenance tool.
Name/Nickname: (If you don't feel comfortable sharing a real name or pen name, that's fine! 
Types of speculative fiction you write: Sci-fi, historical fiction
How long have you been writing?:  5 years part time
What are your goals for joining the group? Any publishing plans?: learn to write effectively, engaging, and yes publish latest work.  I will get back to Mars attempt story based on true science, not fictional  "The Martian" based on.  The results are surprising, more dramatic when accurate science used..
Do you agree to follow all of the rules stated in the rules forum?:  ok just reread the rules.  Yes, after experience with Sundance Collab years ago, I suggest a two tier level.  If you participate well higher level, ones just sitting one sidelines, require several reviews before allowing work posting.  
How did you find us? Did another member refer you?  not sure been to long.
Tell us a little about yourself! Any non-writing interests or hobbies you'd care to share?:  Retired NASA U2 aircraft operations Airborne Science, work several science space missions, doomsday machine, deployed internatinally, traveled to most stange places..
Would you like to join the discord server as well?      no. I had bad experience with reddit written discord and found it too much overhead.

Um... I'm not sure what to say. If you have difficulty using a traditional online forum I'm not sure how well you can participate in the group. With forums you don't receive a reply notification by email unless you bookmark the thread. We expect members to understand how to use a forum as that's how we communicate and respond to critiques.
