 @7ccb675f If you’re needing a reader, I’d be happy to help. 
 @4a3f9d7e Ah, thanks. I've got a couple critique groups, but what I really want is to  get some stuff published! 
 @7ccb675f Groups? Wow, I tend to rely on volunteers I somehow russle up! 😆 
 @4a3f9d7e It took me years to form the first from writers of a similar genre at a similar level. The second developed much faster. 
 @7ccb675f Having been a solitary writer for so long, I’m learning that contacts are key to finding the groove. Hopefully, I can find some here. 🤞

I've never had a group. This wasn't exactly by choice, I just never found one. I'm okay with it these days. My editor will do a critique of each new manuscript as a first step in the editing process.

 @a3976b27 @7ccb675f To be honest, I need to get back into the habit of writing. I haven’t reviewed any films lately and creatively, I feel in a rut. I need the confidence to sit and pants my way through something before polishing it up and then seeking either an editor or beta readers. But creative writing is something still relatively new to me so I’m often overwhelmed by the effort it takes to get something out there. Maybe one day… 
 @4a3f9d7e @a3976b27 I really have to do it regularly to keep the flow going. 
 @4a3f9d7e You've got one in me!
