Setting up

It isn’t necessary to be a member of this blog if communicating through comments is sufficient, but for those that want this I will send an author invite so you can be set up. The way this works is

1) You get a WordPress Account – go to the registration page at http://wordpress.com/ get a username – select ‘just a username’ – and that’s it. (I can’t send you an invite if you haven’t a Wordpress username.)

2) If you already blog elsewhere, keep blogging there. If you want to blog on WordPress select ‘Gimme a blog’ and go the whole hog.

3) This blog – can host stuff to share – competitions, articles, anything you want to run through with other members.

4) CWGonWordPress can also host all the stories that anyone ever wrote. That’s not what it’s for – if we do that it will get very messy and difficult to manage. It’s best if stories are set up on your own blog.

5) Some things to consider:

• Where are all your old stories? A little link-fest wouldn’t go amiss.
• Are you up for creating non-story content for this site?
• I don’t plan on abandoning My Telegraph any time soon but some thoughts on what we do if… would be useful.
