Writers on Writing

ARE YOU A WRITER? You ARE if you take time to write down ideas, scenes, poems, essays. A few lines, a chapter, an outline for an idea that just might become your memoir, your novel, your book on birds, cars, Asia, you name it. There are so many of us who write, but are afraid to call ourselves writers! Do you have to be published to be a "real" writer? NO! This is where we can meet and talk about our work: ideas, hopes, works in progress, questions about editing and publishing and finding an agent. This has been a quiet group...let's make some noise!

In Response to Writers' Digest by Unica1 I published two ebooks through www.worshiphouse.com,a new online publisher located in Texas. They are advertising for new authors. Very nice folks to work with. A children's book might go over well with them. But, they are a publisher of Christian...

I've been working on a book myself since originally laid off in '09 and would like to post a chapter to get reactions from the group. The book is about my journey through the current "economic downturn" ~ more of a memoir than anything else.. funny in spots but dead on in others. Is anyone...

Have been looking for a place to share writings, and read what others have written. Noting that on here no one has submitted anything since December. Is this group still active?
