Writers Group Members with Advice for Aspiring Authors

May 17, 2023 • Claudine Wolk • Season 3 • Episode 71

Is Joining a Writers Group a Good Idea for Aspiring Writers?
(or a great starting point/)

Join authors Linda Wisniewski, Sandra Carey Cody, and Susan Wagner in a fun, illuminating conversation about Women's Writing Groups. All the women are part of a writer's group created through their connection with the Pearl S Buck House in Bucks County, PA. Not all writers groups are created equal and I was curious about how the groups work and how joining one be might advantageous for writers.

Linda, Sandy and Susan share:

their individual writing and publishing stories
how writer's groups help them personally
how they cope with critics
why they write
advice for the aspiring author on publishing
resources that have helped them through their careers
and much, much more.

Find out more about these authors and their books at their websites:

Meet the authors! If you are local, the authors will be attending the Flemington Summer Book Fest being held May 26th thru May 29th from 10-6.
