This group offers a forum for writers to learn and exchange practical information they need to get published. Members gather to ask questions and give advice about every stage of the publishing process, from writing a manuscript to querying an agent to negotiating a contract. While there are many groups for writers out there, most focus exclusively on the craft of writing, while failing to address the practical information that publishers really care about and that can make or break a book deal. Writers seeking to empower themselves with this information should join this group. Whether you are an aspiring writer looking for concrete instructions on how to launch your career, or a published author trying to sell more of your books, this is the group for you!
