Writing is a solitary act. Alone with your pen and paper or computer, you put your inner most thoughts, fears, and desires into a story. Most people just don’t ‘get’ it.
But other writers do. They know how difficult it is to transfer thoughts to paper. They know the nervous anxiety of sending off manuscripts. They know the thrill of acceptance and the crush of rejection. They ‘get’ it.
Coming out of your shell to join a group is a huge step for the serious writer. Networking will boost your confidence, hone your craft, and speed the path to publication.
The right group that is. . .
Having just left one group, I find myself in a loose network of critique partners and forward thinkers. No rules, no dues, just the common goal of creating fresh writing. Ideas are clicking, stories are gelling, and sights are set high.
Aptly named after the legendary Phoenix, our little group is on fire!
