Before I order a copy of Noah Lukeman's book from Amazon, I wanted to know know if any of my kindred writer spirits might have a copy of "The First Five Page" that's just sitting on their bookshelf. I'd rather see my money go to a fellow writer in...
Greetings all,
A local jazz singer and I recently struck a business deal in which she said she would introduce me to various local jazz singers and musicians. Then, when she or one of those jazz performers had an upcoming concert/CD/whatever and ...
Hey Friends,
I hope everyone is well today. It's beautiful where I am, and I hope the same for you. Anyhow, a few months ago I, along with 5 other freelancers, launched SDgreenlife.com, which focuses on San Diego's Green scene. I won't bore you ...

About
Welcome San Diego Writers!
Grab a cup of coffee, pull up a chair and stay awhile. Let's talk about writing.
Keep a few things in mind as you post here:
1. Posts are public.
This is a public forum and all posts are archived on the web. Bottom line, don't say anything here you wouldn't want everyone (and I mean EVERYONE: your mom, your little brother, your future employer) to see. Forever.
2. Be On Topic.
This is a group of writers. We're here to talk about writing, the creation of writing, the business of writing, events about writing. We are also a community of friends to some extent, which means that on occasion, non-writing topics will come up. Use the Start a New Discussion link if you want to change topics, and be sure to Title and Tag your post appropriately. That way your fellow writers will be able to scan the list of active discussions and see which ones are of interest.
3. Be Respectful.
Don't really foresee a problem here, but we gotta say it anyway. Disagreements are fine, but please please don't resort to personal insults and/or name calling. Mean people are not cool and harassment, intentionally inflammatory remarks, and bigotry will not be tolerated.
4. Privacy.
We'll respect yours. We won't give away or sell names, contact information, etc. Please do the same for your fellow community members.
5. SPAM. Don't.
6. Ads.
Part of the deal with using this wonderful, free online tool (ning.com) is that it has Ads running along the side. We can upgrade to a professional account, but it will cost $20 per month, so if it bothers you, be prepared to pony up.

It's been awhile since you emailed me. Thanks. I don't know what advice it could have been. :)
