Amy Sue, Just opened the door to the novelist group for you - welcome! You might introduce yourself by telling us what you’re working on in the “Show Me Your Novel and I’ll Show You Mine” discussion if you're not too uncomfortable talking about what you're working on. I’ll look forward to chatting with you!

Jeannette LeSure commented on the blog post 'How to Write Memoir? 1. Forget Writing Prompts and Exercises 2. Stake Out Your Territory'
