Cristina Trapani-Scott commented on the blog post 'The NaNoWriMo adventure begins!'
This is exactly why I am doing NaNoWriMo. Well, not the Barbara Kingsolver, Toni Morrison and Maxine Hong Kingston part:) That would indeed be mind-blowing. But, I spent 10 years on my first novel, which is under submission right now. I needed…

Here is a link to a great blog post that I used to help me with my query. Corrine is a classmate of mine. I know her book is YA, but the overall concepts apply to just about any genre, especially literary fiction. It helped to see her before and…

I have been to Bear River three times and loved it every single year. The faculty is top notch. They definitely are geared toward literary fiction and poetry, as many of the faculty are connected with the University of Michigan MFA program. Camp…

Cristina Trapani-Scott commented on the blog post 'Tell Us: Why Do You Write?'

The novel is done and I've sent it to Switchgrass, a small press calling for Midwestern writers. Now, I'm just waiting to hear. How are things in Kentucky? Things are great here. I haven't done a ton of my own writing since sending…

Hi Ami, Thanks for accepting my friends and welcome to the Detroit group. Yes, I have a couple of survivor kind of poems I might submit. I'm also interested in performance, I think:) I'd love to get more into reading and reading well.

Hello Christina!

Thanks for the welcome. I do love that Erma essay; although, I just recently "found" it. My mother had every one of Erma's books and most of our fridge was covered with her columns, but I am sure it did not click with me until my son was born.

I peeked in at your blog...love the M.O.M. Very clever! And true for all moms...

A very wise someone once remarked to me, about the varying degrees of disability some children face, and how might all "rank" them. My answer to her then, and my feelings since and now, are this: It's a hard boat to row. Anyone who wantss to row, I say, Thank you. No other admissions required.

Not even typos!

Thank you.

Taking Copycat Pathways to Originality

I was reading a blog post last week about the benefit of copying as a means of learning something new, such as blogging. A writer named Di Mace was saying, “From copying, you then begin to understand, and from understanding you then start to play…See More
