No problem Lorraine, thanks for joining, and welcome! :)

I am finishing up a novel now and hopefully will be more active in the next few days here.

Thanks for the invite to add books to the shelf Rose. I'll put my three on there now; I should have a 4th by December (the last book of the trilogy, which has been a difficult one to write).

Awesome! Wow, looking forward to your 4th novel! :D

Are you finishing up reading a novel, or writing one? :P

Hey guys :D! Does anyone know a really good book on novel writing? I kind of want to step up my game.

I found Steven King's book On Writing really helpful, and really different to other writing guides I've looked at.

thanks :D I'll be sure to check it out

Soon to be publishing my 13th book! If only I could sell them (*sigh*) I can't stop writing though :)

My mentor, Steve Acorn wrote How to Fix your Novel. I have studied under him and he as a clear way to showing both imagining and planning your novel.

It was very helpful to me.

Anyone else doing NaNoWriMo? I'm doing it for the first time :) It's an eye-opening experience.

Nope, Hate writing on a forced schedule. However, I have written 30,000 words since 10/25/13. Just happens to coincide.
