Our history from Brit’s POV

I’ve been in this group since October of 2004. Just two of the original four of us remain, Tina Gerow and myself. Alexis moved away and is greatly missed. Plus she left us hanging in the middle of a really good story.  We’re waiting Lex.

Bev joined us not too long after our inception and is always a big encouragement. Pat and Paula have come and gone, but Paula found a writing home with Whiskey Creek Press and Pat has a book coming from Five Star. Isabella and Carol joined while I was away in Ohio.

In the beginning, we met at Ray’s pizza as Tina mentioned, about five miles from me. Both Alexis and I lived way out of Phoenix and the girls would travel out here for our meetings. Those were some of the most productive evenings I’ve ever spent. Tina wrote Into a Dangerous Mind, and I worked on One Dance with Danger. My original manuscript is still being sent out…while I went on to publish with Romance at Heart and Amber Quill Press.

Tina and I just finished a project together; Knights of the Magical Realm: Warriors Gone Wild with Triskelion Publishing. It’s out in eBook now and coming in print in October.  We’d wanted to do a project together and Tina found a way to make it happen!

I also have a contract with Avalon, Thoroughly Mannerly Millicent, I wrote with the help of my critique group in about three weeks time. I can’t say enough about finding a good critique group to help keep you motivated as a writer.  It staggers my mind when I think 3 of the original 4 are published or have contracts and 4 out of 7 who have been a member at one time or another.  All of this happened in less than 2 years…October is our two year anniversary.

And about this martini thing…Lex and I preferred our refreshments from a brown bottle, but I swear Alexis, these butterscotch martinis are really good. 

Brit

I have a winner!

Thanks to everyone…
