Live chat this Sunday to discuss the latest release, Karen Traviss' Bloodlines, the second book in the Legacy of the Force series. Our chats for Betrayal and Legacy #1 went very well, hopefully this one will follow suit. I cannot guarantee any VIPs will show up. Yes, I'm serious.

The chat is sponsored by the Livejournal community starwars_eu.

I did (just) realize it's Labor Day weekend here in the U.S. I figure that could either be very bad (everyone on vacation) or very good (No school/work Monday - everyone stays up late!) We'll see, I guess. Be there if you can!

Sunday, September 3, starting at
8pm Eastern / 5pm Pacific / Midnight UTC

On irc.holonet.org, channel #eu
If you're not familiar with IRC, you can use
Holonet's web-based chat client (works best in Firefox.)

Although Holonet's web interface works fairly well, I highly recommend use of a standard IRC program. The old-school standby program for IRC is mIRC for Windows; Chatzilla, which will run from any Mozilla-based browser, is also popular and will work on a Mac.

Some multi-platform IM programs, like Gaim and Trillian will also allow you to connect to IRC, though I only recommend them if you're already familiar with IRC.[/lj-cut]

The chat will officially go on for about two hours, (until 10pm Eastern/7pm Pacific/2am UST) but I expect that people will stick around for a while afterwards if the conversation warrants it, so feel free to stop by throughout the night. I'll log until the conversation dies, whatever the time.

If anyone's wondering about another Legacy chat, I'm holding off until the end of this first arc - there's no way I can do this for every issue of a comic, as the things are averaging 4/5 hours. (That's a lot of desk surfing!) But feel free to use the chat room at any time.
