Just last night I realized how the stakes need to be higher in my current YA project (so near to the end and yet, so far).<BR/><BR/>Michelle, thank God for the internet is right! Are you familiar with Therese Fowler's blog? It's always inspirational and educational!<BR/><BR/>Lisa MarnellLisa Marnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12235497373498278277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37180398.post-25577315834966998802007-06-26T11:03:00.000-04:002007-06-26T11:03:00.000-04:00Great post!I have to agree.

As a self-confessed control freak NOTHING is harder for me than the waiting. <BR/><BR/>And yes, I realize often how empty my life would be without the support of other writers, even those with whom I've only connected online. <BR/><BR/>Thanks God for the internet!Michelle Zinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08127978024081928639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37180398.post-70778821788388115942007-06-25T22:03:00.000-04:002007-06-25T22:03:00.000-04:00It's a lot of work, thinking up a book and writing...It's a lot of work, thinking up a book and writing it!<BR/><BR/>I hope we're all set with the Breakfast With the Authors event at Buttonwood.

Sounds like there was a fair amount of kismet involved. You are the only blogging functioning writers group I'm aware of and I thank all of you so much for the support you provide to the rest of us. I have gotten more than my fair share from you wonderful ladies already and I'm happy and grateful to know that you're always ready to help.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00665632105920753931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37180398.post-46210567253846245142007-06-25T12:53:00.000-04:002007-06-25T12:53:00.000-04:00Why does the idea of becoming a published writer r...Why does the idea of becoming a published writer remind me of learning to walk with baby steps?

An expert writer like you to guide me (thanks from the bottom of my heart for setting the bar high) and a friend in you as well!<BR/><BR/>Lisa, it was quite a story, our getting together as a writer's group. To find out about our journey, go to our blog and click on the link that is labeled "Finding a Writer's Group". That will fill you in. And you're right, we are lucky. But remember, Lisa, we want to help support other blog readers, so drop us a line if you need some encouragement (as we all do sometimes). We're happy to lend an ear and send happy writing thoughts to you as well!<BR/><BR/>Lisa MarnellLisa Marnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12235497373498278277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37180398.post-83928245123534378542007-06-25T11:10:00.000-04:002007-06-25T11:10:00.000-04:00How did the four of you find each other and form T...How did the four of you find each other and form The Writers' Group?

I wouldn't encourage someone in this business lightly, as our friend said writing a book is too hard, getting it published harder. You'll do it. I've no doubt.<BR/><BR/>AmyLynne Griffin and Amy MacKinnonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11107479565926998943noreply@blogger.com
