I was asked to read at the Writers conference at the college today. (I also had two works published in their anthology) WELL, IT went really well there were writer's and agents and I got some really good feedback.
I have a meeting with an agent tomorrow, I really would rather talk about Thunders new short story that I want to send to a children's publisher But will see how it goes.
Just wanted to share since I didn't pass out or anything LOL
Sheila that is awesome.
Now remember you are there for YOUR writing so that is what they want to hear about. Get that settled and then talk about Thunder's work
Congrats
RIGHT ON SHEILA!!!!
Not to steal "thunders" thunder, but it's okay for you to be successful!!
I'm sure he feels that way too!! It's fine for the WOMAN to be out there.
CONGRATS

Arrow: Thank you
That is so cool. Writers are a sorry lot
Scared to let anyone see what words we write and desperately needing validation that what we write is good
Awright Sheila! Good for you! I wish nothing but the best for you.

LL, so true and very funny. tks. for inspiration, I recommend everyone reads "On Writing" by Stephen King. I kid you not, it's very inspiring, he is a great guy and very encouraging to new writers. xo tal
On writing is WONDERFUL Thunder sent a copy of his book to Stephen King since he loves to read to. I figure what the heck could it hurt LOL
Also in one of his novels at the beginning he is talking about his process. He said people always tell him " I want to write, I have this idea." and he says ""then WRITE IT." That was a powerful statment for me.
WELL, IT went really well there were writer's and agents and I got some really good feedback.
he,hee guess all those "talks" in the MS paid off! See being a JW wasn't so bad after all........LOL
Anyway congrats glad it went so well for you.
