Catherine,

So glad to have you join us in the Novelist group! Seeing your name pop up reminds me that I haven't seen Liz Amini-Holmes - if I remember correctly, she is the one who drafted me to come to your Palo Alto reading for The Last Prince and introduced us - in quite a while; I should see what she's up to.

Do introduce yourself to the group by telling us what you’re working on in the “Show Me Your Novel and I’ll Show You Mine” discussion if you're willing to talk about works in progress. And do tell the group about your lovely novels in the "Our Published Novels" thread.

I'll look forward to chatting with you in the group.

Meg

Hi. We've never met, but I've read pages of your blog and have seen your name all around the DC literary scene, such as it is, for ages. The DC SheWrites group isn't very active, because I'm too busy to make anything happen with it. I tried once, with little success. There's a monthly (first Weds.) salon organized by member Shawna Kenney on H Street NE, and there's an upcoming DC She Writes gathering at Teaism that I'll probably go to. Please use the group as you see fit. And welcome.
