Very good advice here, Carol. I hope it spurs some others to joining a writers' group in their own area, or even starting one. I especially liked the list of writing books you included.

Well I commented last night but the bad weather wouldn't let it add.
This writeup is great and let's us know about your group. Hope you gain new members that need help like you did. Gail

The story of your experiences with writing groups is interesting reading, and the list of helpful books will surely send writers to a library.

Excellent work. I truly enjoyed reading and learning from it. I look forward to obtaining some of the titles you've mentioned. Just one little sad note and that was that you didn't reference my old tattered, dog-eared
standby; "Strunk & White, Elements Of Style". I eagerly await your next Our Echo Offering.
