Hi there Moalex! The chatroom indeed closed back in January of this year. Nate, the owner of the site, made an announcement called YWS Chatroom and Chat Bar to Close Jan. 10, 2017 that I'm going to suggest checking out if you're wanting more details. However, we do open the chatroom for special events during the year and at least once a month for Review Day!
In short, Mrs. Pontellier was beginning to realize her position in the universe as a human being, and to recognize her relations as an individual to the world within and about her. — Kate Chopin, The Awakening
