Summer time and these writers are taking it easy. This is my local authors group, VIRA. On a hot, sunny Saturday we retired to the front porch to enjoy a picnic pot luck and talk writing. The food was delicious. The company was entertaining and the writing was downright terrific. Part of the day included an anonymous reading for one or two pages of a member’s wip. The pages were all dropped in a basket. Volunteers selected one submission and read it out to the group. We then did a little kindly critiquing. And we weren’t being kind just because we’re nice people. We were kind because the writing was excellent. We had to really nit-pick to find something that could be improved.
I’ve always enjoyed and admired the women in my group, but this week I really applaud them for their creative talents, their command of language, and their ability to spin a tale.
I recommend you check them out here. There’s a new release page on the website. I’d encourage you to look at both the romance releases and the non-romance. These writers are funny, clever and daring. Read one of their books. You’ll be glad you did.
