Graduates of Judy Reeves’ Wednesday Writers Group with our personalized “diplomas!”

Jim  Ruland, Sandra Millers Younger and I met every Wednesday for over two years  at Judy Reeves’ read and critique group.  We read each other’s pages, exchanged thoughtful feedback and revised our novels’ chapters accordingly.  The Mango Bride saw print  in April 2013, Sandra’s The Fire Outside My Window followed suit that fall, and Jim’s Forest of Fortune hit the bookstores this month.

I am blessed to have written my first novel in the company of these wonderful writers.
