The Wandering Shop

Wandering.Shop aims to have the vibe of a quality coffee shop at a busy SF&F Convention. Think tables of writers, fans and interested passers-by sharing drinks and conversation on a variety of topics.

Mastodon hosted on wandering.shop

Hi there! I’ve been exploring the #fediverse and feel like I’m almost home, but not quite.

I’d love an #invite to #WanderingShop —it seems perfect. Guys, my setup is ready.

I have a question about instances. Is there a reason why someone on liner notes.club wouldn’t see my posts on wandering.shop? Are there some instances that don’t “speak” to others? #wanderingshop #instances #mastodonInstance #instance

“Six days to start something and then six years to find someone else to hand it to” is also the #WanderingShop story 😅

Hey, #WanderingShop patrons, sorry for the downtime. I'm not actually sure what the hell happened, but we're back.

I expect that there will be some lag in filling back in your timelines. It'll get there, but be patient.

Level Up: The Business of Writing

You’ve written your amazing story. It’s coming out or is already out in the world, with a publisher or independently. You’re thrilled for readers to discover your book but…nobody seems to be reading it. Or maybe you want to write your next book, or put together and anthology, or maybe …

Well, smart server administrators have some limiting factor in signups. Wise server admins like those at #HoosierSocial and #WanderingShop both do this. Even something as simple as a dialog box asking why you want to be a member will stymie automatic signups by a spambot.

Open registrations seem like a fun, OK idea, until they become a terrible idea overnight.

Anyone know why I'm getting timed out trying to access https://wandering.shop/ ?
