Testimony from my main man, John Claude Bemis: "Gratitude to My Critique Group."

11/8/2011

 
Picture
_   Writing novels is a team sport. I am super lucky to be part of a critique group with three fantastic writers: John Claude Bemis, Jennifer Harrod, and Stephen Messer. We have a great respect and love for each other, and we agree on just about everything, except plot points, spoilers, use of -ly adverbs, characterization, book recommendations, or a name for our group. Anyhoo... did I mention how close we are? We've been meeting regularly since before any of us were published. Now, six years later, our group has more than 9 books published or under contract.
     But don't take my word for it.  Get the scoop from John on Smack Dab in the Middle.
