In the years since
its creation the Regency Email List has grown beyond my wildest dreams.
Unfortunately, it is due to this growth that it has become necessary
to close the list to new members and start a waiting list for anyone
who wishes to join.
Below you will find an application
for membership. Please fill in all the fields!
After you've completed the application, click on the "submit" button
and it will automatically be forwarded to me. Once I've received your
application and determined that you meet the requirements (listed
below), I will add your name and email address to the waiting list.
Due to the list's popularity,
only a few members every month or so choose to stop their subscription.
However, it does happen. When a current member unsubscribes from the
list, the open slot will be filled with a name on the waiting list.
The wait to become a member
of the Regency Email List can take anywhere from a few weeks to a
few months, sometimes longer. Once you have filled out the application
and your name is on the waiting list (I will send you a form email
to confirm this fact), please do not email me asking when
a new slot will open! I simply do not have time to host
the list and write my books, plus continually reassure people they
are indeed on the waiting list; if you receive an email confirmation,
you are.
Before filling out the form below, please
be sure
you meet the List Requirements!*

Read the following carefully;
if you do not meet the requirements or do not agree to abide by the
list rules, please do not apply to join the list.
- New subscribers to the
Regency Email List must either have one or more Regency books
in print and published by a paying, offline publishing house or
be actively engaged in writing and submitting a Regency period
novel for publication. Due to the nature of the list, first priority
will be given to published authors.
- All subscribers must
promise not to quote entire posts in their replies. Some
quoting is allowed; quoting entire posts and especially entire
digests in your reply is not. This rule helps keep the list manageable
and posts organized; it is especially helpful to digest subscribers.
- All subscribers must
promise to use accurate subject lines in their posts. It
is common courtesy and allows all members of the list to be able
to pick and choose accurately which threads of discussion they
wish to follow.
- Differences of opinion
make for lively discussions. Flame wars do not. Disagreeing with
an idea is acceptable, attacking a person is not. Courtesy
is the rule at all times on this list!
-- List subscribers
who participate in or instigate flame wars will be immediately
removed from the list!
* List members who do
not abide by the above rules, especially after repeated warnings,
will be removed from the list and will not be invited to rejoin.
