About Connie Hartt-CookClose
ConnieL.Cook
Who am I
Semi-retired writer of short fiction and flash fiction. I almost wrote "friction" instead of "fiction." I guess that's what I'm working on now- developing "friction" in my fiction. I've won a number of contests and have been published in Anthologies. Currently, I'm working on my first mystery-romance novel and I'm also a member of a writers group locally.
My site, blog, or Twitter handle are
Currently in the works to change my name to "Hartt-Cook" so I'm not up and running on those platforms yet.

Services I offer to other writers
I offer honest critique of other's work, having learned the craft of being candid while working on a Creative Writing Certificate from the U of T. Three positive points and three suggestions of where the writing could be improved.
I had a "not-so-glamorous" career in social work with families so I'm able to offer critiques of what might ring true (or not)for the real experiences of the down-trodden and disenfranchised.
I'm part of these writers' groups or salons
Blue Mountain Writers Group
Scribophile
Media outlets that I currently write for
I am a Freelance writer for magazines such as Boomer and Rural Roots.
I found out about She Writes from
A friend and talented author of her first novel, "Caught Up."
