Dear Members, Participants and Supporters,

My only excuse for this newsletter being so late is that I have been busy writing – and it’s true!

So often the hardest advice for writers to accept is that they must write, even when it means ignoring household chores, mowing the lawn, exercising, and writing friendly newsletters to your fellow writers.

I am hard at work on a manuscript and it is truly consuming most of my brain space, not to mention all my “free” time. I hope you know what this feels like and have sympathy for me.

And, if you are at a place in your writing when feedback is essential, be sure to attend the Monday night critique groups which begin at 6:30 pm in the back of Darcie Lynn’s Paperback Exchange. Bring copies of 5 pages, double-spaced 12 font, to share with the group for invaluable input.

If you are at a place in your writing when research or inspiration are on order, be sure to go by Darcie Lynn’s Paperback Exchange to pick up a book to fill these needs.

Either way, keep writing.

The February and March calendars are posted – just in case I fall behind next month too.

Best,

Diane
