Of course, it depends on the writer, but being in a writing group or part of a workshop can do wonders for piling up the pages.Dell Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18108158142730913238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7653198887726184360.post-11565797186990159542009-02-09T09:31:00.000-05:002009-02-09T09:31:00.000-05:00Dell -- I agree wholeheartedly that writing groups...Dell -- I agree wholeheartedly that writing groups are helpful to writers at any stage in their careers. For over fifteen years, I have been meeting with two different poetry groups. I like having the deadline of a meeting coming up because it forces me to sit down and write. Also, the valuable critiques have helped me polish some poems for future publication (one of the poems I published in "Yankee" magazine was shaped by my Falmouth Poets group). Plus, it's great to meet with like-minded artists. I'm sure Liz would agree with this. Good luck with your new group!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7653198887726184360.post-11427742081158511382009-02-09T08:15:00.000-05:002009-02-09T08:15:00.000-05:00It sounds as if this new group is going to be crea...It sounds as if this new group is going to be creative and pragmatic, a great combination.<BR/><BR/>It is a pleasure to read your honest description of the false starts, fizzles and small successes of the groups you have known.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
