The Write Slice: Write or Wrong

I attended the LTUE (Life, the Universe, and Everything) Symposium for the first time this year. This is a three-day workshop focused around speculative fiction (fantasy, sci fi, horror, paranormal, etc.), but still has a lot of really good general writing information. I don't traditionally write spec fiction, but this conference inspired me to dabble in it a bit. Whenever you go to writing conferences, you get a lot of great advice, instruction, and information. LTUE was no exception. I'll share more of that info with you as the weeks progress. But perhaps the most helpful panel for me was the very first one I attended called Overcoming Adversity. As you all know, my life is busy, and finding or making time to write is very difficult. I am a part-time teacher (which, since it's teaching, that means nearly full-time), mom of a 5-year-old and a 2-year-old, Stampin' Up Demonstrator , wife, and homemaker. My kids are young enough they need fairly constant availability,

I have an exciting announcement! My critique group has finally made our group blog live.  It is called The Writers' Ramble .  Go check it out. You can read the description for yourself, but basically we will write a blog post on the same topic each month, then The Writers' Ramble gives a brief synopsis of each post with a link. So you can now check out all the wicked awesome people who are willing to put up with my crap and help me polish into gold...or at least bronze.
