Many thanks to all who took the time to read or share their comments on Rebecca Rasmussen’s wonderful post, Semper Fi (In Other Words: Have Some Heart, Rebecca). If you haven’t read it, yet, you should definitely take a peek. Whatever your goals (writing or otherwise) you’ll walk away feeling inspired.
While Rebecca was visiting my place yesterday, I was off at The Red Dress Club talking about elements like “misplaced plots” and “painful dialogue” in Keeping Your Writing Real…Not Really Boring.
The Red Dress Club is a virtual writer’s society, and “was created as a place for writers to gather, exchange ideas and learn something about the art of storytelling.” Not only a community, The Red Dress hosts a weekly writing prompt and link-up — if you’re strapped for ideas, this is the place to go! So, if you have some time today, feel free to pop over, read my post, and then take a look around.
That’s the news for today, or actually, yesterday. Thank you again for all of your support — wishing you a happy and productive week ahead!
Thanks for sharing, Amanda! That seems like a cool site!

Just read your post at The Red Dress Club and commented. As time goes by, I discover that this blogging this is so much more than posts. It’s a real community of people who support each other, challenge each other, and have gratitude for each other.

I agree, Renee…and just 8 months ago I had never (knowingly) read a blog before.

You little rascal, you.
Read your post at red dress club, and loved it, agreed with it, and got scared by it.
So, I gotta be really really good to write a book, huh?
Drat.
On to the next life goal.

I would so love to be able to write fiction, and I agree with all you say in your post over at the Red Dress. I know what I love to read, and I hate it when words get in the way of what I’m reading, but I don’t know that I could ever write like that. You do, and I’m just plain in awe.
