They think by making it all secretive that they will get further. It's because they are afraid and insecure though. And that's more reason to look at them and say it'll be ok, someday you'll see your mistakes. <br />Lucky for us, not EVERYONE is like that. :) I'm glad you found a place (the posse) to come to and share your stories, ideas, events, etc. <br /><br />If you like you can keep in touch with my on fb at www.facebook.com/ejkolodziej<br /><br />or just head over to my website at www.vampyrekisses.com <br /><br />I'm always here to help.<br /><br /><3's and fangs,<br />Liz ^_^Elizabeth Kolodziejhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13091352709759913291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7113338551640839666.post-28327777154038699152011-10-04T05:28:41.265-07:002011-10-04T05:28:41.265-07:00Hi Laurie,

Sac College, creative writing department, the Creative Writer's Club of California, (Brothers and) Sisters in Crime, etc. There are so many inclusive writers and writing groups. I host two in Claremont-- come visit us. <br /><br />With community, we flourish. Alone, we tend to wither.<br /><br />Be in touch via FB Page: Marta Chausée please friend me.<br /><br />Marta Chausée<br />Resort to Murder, a Maya French mysterymarta chauséehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03220377163454979720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7113338551640839666.post-27703061980755862802011-10-03T22:49:49.730-07:002011-10-03T22:49:49.730-07:00From Angela R.: "Oh Laurie, that's horrib...From Angela R.: "Oh Laurie, that's horrible. I hope you soon realize it's not typical of the writing community. It is a tough business and recongizing that, most of us are happy to help others learn and grow and succeed. There isn't an author out there who hasn't been guided by a stronger and more successful author. It's our pleasure and our responsiblity to do the same for others. Take heart, the good ones are waiting for you!"Sunny Frazierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03693884364418711551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7113338551640839666.post-83616821286413086582011-10-03T22:43:08.877-07:002011-10-03T22:43:08.877-07:00All the time!
