In the beginning there were individuals who wrote. Some had other writer friends to share their words with, some did not. Then...they found each other. More writers joined the circle. Some come to visit, some to stay. All are welcome.
Would this group of writers continue to write as individuals if they did not have each other?
Probably.
Would they have encouragement and inspiration without the group.
Perhaps.
Would the encouragement and inspiration be the same?
Absolutely not.
Our diverse group of writers has a remarkable chemistry. Our members have different styles, interests and genres, but we all share the same passion for writing and for "being there" for each other.
We will share the honor of writing this blog. (I was going to call it a task, but it really is an honor to work with the talented group we have...at least I feel honored.)
Stop by often, you never know what you will find written here. It might be an announcement, a brag, an idea, it might be a story, it might be a poem, or it might just be a rant.
Enjoy.

Debbie and those who were able to attend tonight. I went through each critiqued page and updated my story with a combination of your corrections, some were really needed. A few I did not choose to use I thought it took away from the sentence, but only a few. Most I used, some were identical between you all. I am so glad you told me about the dialogue, as I while I was correcting it I remembered that I had struggled with that, now I know. So a big THANK YOU to all of you for your time in reading and helping to make corrections. My story is much better now because of you all. Have a good night. By the way, nice blog Debbie.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing. Remember that the critiques we share are our opinions, and even though some of them may be about basic grammar rules, you can always choose which ideas to embrace and which to ignore. I'm glad you are a part of our group. :-)
