The Writers View

I've been a moderator on The Writers View for several years now, and would love to encourage any writers to consider joining. It's a great networking and resource opportunity. Here's the info:

If you're an aspiring writer and want to get a writers conference in your
inbox, consider joining The Writer View. It's free. It's amazing. And,
seriously, you'll learn everything you'd learn at a writer's conference
(sans meeting cool people face to face), only you don't have to pay airfare.

How they work: Each Monday and Thursday a panelist poses a question about
the publishing industry, the craft of writing, or anything related to the
writing journey. These panelists are agents, editors, writers who are well
known in the Christian writing industry. Then, panelists and members write
posts about the question raised. I still learn new things every week. It's a
moderated loop, so there's no blatant self promotion. Word counts are
limited to 250 per post.

For beginning to intermediate writers, the group to join is TWV 2. Click

For advanced, published writers, join The Writers View. Click here
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/TheWritersView

You will be asked to fill out an application that you then send to the
group's leadership. You'll receive an email letting you know whether you've
been accepted.
