Travel Blog from Phil Barth

Phil Barth mentioned a travel blog he had written about his travels with his father over the summer. Since several CCW members were interested in reading the blog entries, here's the link: http://www.danieljosephson.blogspot.com/ . The road trip entries were posted in May and June 2011, under the title: "Finding Fritz, Sr."

Your Book's Two Stories

Did you know your book has two stories? Author Trish Perry reminded us of that and gave tips on how to craft those two stories during our bi-monthly meeting on Monday, Nov. 14.

If you want to see what those stories are and how to use them in your writing, check out my notes from the meeting at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mUEU7VgWcl5hNzFUKnoIlCsZ1FzMmX0DWRA6KwnaI1A/edit?hl=en_US#.

Our next meeting will be January 9, 2012. Check out the website for speaker information and other news.

Join the fun with NaNoWrMo

It's not too late to join November’s National Novel Writing Month. NaNoWrMo, as it’s affectionately called, can be a blessing or a curse to a writer, depending on how you look at writing a 50,000 word novel from scratch in a month that has a major holiday. But it can be a great way to jumpstart that project you’ve always been meaning to write.

Come join the fun and let us know in the comments section of this blog what you're working on this month!
