Hays County Writers Group

Hi. I had an idea to create a Writer's Group for people in Kyle and the greater Hays County area. (I know the Kyle Public Library has a Writers Group, but due to it conflicting with my schedule, I am unable to attend, so I decided to make my own, after looking around on the Internet only to find no other Writer's Groups.)

I made this post to see if other people are interested, because I am a writer myself and I want to make friends and connect with other writers in the community, and if enough people are interested, a convenient date and time to meet could be decided upon. (This idea was not made to compete with the KPL's Writers Group.) Below is a Google Form to get information and feedback from those interested in my writing group idea, so the first meeting can be planned. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask me. (Also one submission per person, please.)

Interview for school: anyone escape a cult?

Hey all, I'm just curious if anyone has left/ escaped a cult and would be willing to chat with me about that experience.

I'm a masters student at Texas State so this is just for class.

Thanksgiving joke URGENT help - Buda

I live in Onion Creek Meadows right by Buda, TX. I live there with my wife, 12yo son, mother + father in law. And my brother in law and his wife are visiting. Everyone is pretty evenly split politically and it was a tense election... BUT everyone has a good sense of humor. I want someone with an American flag shirt and a MAGA hat and a case of beer to come over on Thanksgiving (morning, noon, night - at your convenience) and I will introduce you as my uncle and it will shock the fam, and we can do some funny shit briefly before we reveal it as a prank. I don't have money - but I will owe you one prank on your friend's or family. On my honor. If you like humor and love america, and can straight-face things enough to make my mother in law and sister in law tense and then make them laugh their butts off - you're my guy. Come on dude. This will be great - then we'll be buds! DANG it, I wish I would have thought of this earlier. Anyway, I would use an existing friend but it has to be someone they don't know. Anyway I get off work at 2:30 in south Austin on Menchaca, and can meet. Let's goooooo!

Best Internet providers?

I’ve had it with AT&T fiber. Way too many issues, we’re paying for the highest package available and it still doesn’t reach all devices in the house. Not to mention the amount of outages for no apparent reason.

What are the best providers in the area? For context, my husband and I both work from home and are on video calls all day. There are also about 5 smart devices in the home but it shouldn’t be too much for a basic internet provider to support. Any guidance here would be appreciated.

What's y'alls take on Prop A? For or Against?

It seems environmentally focused groups are worried the bond project was rushed and not enough due diligence done on environmental impact, especially as it related to the aquifer. The county leaders say they want to push it now to have max voter engagement on a presidential ballot. I'm usually pretty positive on bond measures, but I don't like that this one seems to be road focused only and the concerns raised by the local groups. Just curious to hear others thoughts.

Early Voting

Any fun stories from the start of Early Voting today in Hays County. Line was out the door at BTX City Hall the two times I passed by. Tried to vote at Sunfield Station before work but had to bail as the line was slow like molasses.

Moving to Sunfield - Looking for Gym Recommendations/Buddies

Hey everyone! I’m moving to Sunfield in Buda, TX next month and I’m on the lookout for some good gym recommendations. I usually go to LA Fitness and prefer a traditional gym with solid equipment—not into CrossFit or anything too fancy. Also, if anyone is looking for a workout buddy, feel free to hit me up! Would love to get to know some people in the area.

Thanks in advance for any tips!

Life in Buda

How’s life in Buda? Seems like a quiet nice town that’s not too far from the city where you can have the mix of both worlds. However, I’d like to hear more from the locals.

Affordable dentist?

I currently am on Medicaid and my tooth is starting to worry me. My insurance doesn’t cover much unfortunately. Anyone have a dentist that works with Medicaid and won’t charge an arm and leg??

Police on W Goforth

What happened on W Goforth? There’s several police vehicles, with officers standing around, and the whole street is blocked off with police tape, right in front of the utility workstation (I think it’s a lift station?)

Do bunny ears get channels for y’all’s TV?

My folks live in Buda I live in Austin. My house in Austin I get all the basic channels with bunny ears. I can’t seem to get any channels with bunny ears at my parents house in Buda. Which is only 15 miles south of me. Curious if anyone else has this issue? I’m supposed to go over there Sunday and want to watch the cowboy game (trying to avoid a streaming service)
