About Writers In the Storm

We are a group of  pro and published genre writers who critique and polish our work for submission.   In the process, we’ve discovered the benefits of the unique perspectives and strengths we bring to the table.

There’s  more to life than writing, but sometimes life can be the richest story of all.

We chose Writers in the Storm as the name of this blog because every writer must weather the storm within: self doubt, rejection, deadlines, and balancing our writing passion with everyday life.  Not to mention the storm raging outside - the paradigm shift in the publishing industry.

Subjects will range from our writing processes and critique techniques to fun things we do to relax – like knitting, doll collecting, motorcycling, crafting handmade cards, surviving motherhood, healthy living tips, our trips and travels.  We’ll also be dishing in This Week at Critique Group. . . 

Let us know your interests.  We invite you to stop by again soon.

    Love that photo with the red sky. Love the Doors-type name of your blog. My new book: http://www.knowords.com. I am getting blurbs from famous creative people in different fields;I will take the book, The World’s Most Creative (And Dangerous)Quote Book, the blurbs, the requests from Twitter, e-mail letters, and others for a copy of the book to an agent. I only have 10 copies to send for blurbs. My Twitter name is Wylieknowords. I will enter your contest. I am now writing titles, lyrics, slogans, mottoes, mantras, Tweets, brands, product names, ads, and such. Look forward to
    reading your blog. N.Wylie Jones “Twitter- where serendipity meets karma.”N.Wylie Jones

    • I looked at your site – it’s facinating! I’m also in love with quotes – my current WIP has one at the beginning of every chapter. Sharla gave me a book on Cowboy quotes, and I’m wearing it out!

      Good luck in the contest – thanks for reading!
