Introduction

An enthusiastic writer experimenting with just about everything!

Who is your favorite author / screenwriter / director / etc?

Virginia Woolf, Ursula Le Guin, Jorge Luis Borges, Lewis Carroll, Mercedes Lackey, Fanny Fern, Dorothy Sayers, Hermione Lee; Charlie Kaufman

Are you involved in any writing (or writing-related) activities you'd like to mention?

Participating in Naming the World (meetup.com/NamingTheWorld); working on the launch and shakedown of WriZine (the RRW-sponsored eJournal at Wrizine.org).

What genres / forms do you enjoy writing; Reading?; what would you like to try?

Favorite genre: Reference. Novels seem to fit me best; am trying short stories and poetry. Am thinking of multi-form work.

OH, Yes -- and your favorite Treat? (any kind) Have a Goal you'd like to share?

A new reference book! Or something on lexicography. Goals--Let's see ... Develop more Depth in writing. Work on the mind's ear for the music of the language. Probably take a lifetime, those two things.

What Neva is saying about this Meetup Group

In addition to fiction writers in many genres, there are some screenwriters, songwriters, and some paint as well. So interesting to hear creativity coming out in all sorts of ways.

  • "reader's are the writer's best aid"....i appreciate the value of that...it's important for a reader to develop better critiquing (reading) skills (through feedback) because many times a critique or a review lacks the substance required for substantially improving a story....learning how to to be a better critic helps us to craft better stories
