I mentioned this yesterday and immediately followed up. Here are some great pointers in starting a writing group if you are unable to find one in your area, and how to run the group. Of course you can run it the way you want but this is what works for us. Hope you all find this helpful. http://www.writinghood.com/Writing/How-to-Start-and-Manage-a-Writing-Group.80233

The link you provided has some very useful information. Thanks you for posting it. Getting involved with a writing group right now is just what I need in my life. Not only to improve and motivate myself but for some social interaction as well.

I am glad you found it useful. I hope you are able to find a writing group near you, or are able to start one up yourself. You really do learn a lot and you can have lots of laughs too.

Wow, that was great. Do you manage a writing group yourself? How can I be involved? Thank you.

I manage the group in that I am the secretary and take care of all the schedules and emails. I don't lead because I do enough as it is, but I used to. Find a group in your area or start one yourself using the tips I suggested. Thanks for your support.
