Kylie... have you sent a message to Priya on her profile? She just submitted books on the 12th.

No. I had no idea she'd posted any books, maybe she's keeping them a secret from me.

Sorry i didn't realise they had to be posted here as well!
I posted all my books on the Roll Call thread

I have submitted more books Kylie. On the Roll Call Thread.
Do i need to put them all here too?

Priya wrote: "I have submitted more books Kylie. On the Roll Call Thread.

I don't think you do, really. I just didn't know you were still here.

I have been checking in regularly in the Roll Call thread

Ladies???? Need to hear from you

Catsalive, I see you are still here. Priya hasn't given any way to contact her other than to chase her down through challenges and hope I can catch her online.

If she doesn't show up and one of the other two ghosts, I will slide you into one of the other slots. Their teammates are more active. I know you are bored. At least the last couple weeks will be more interesting.
