Find your posse


This morning I'm off to a writing group I've been a part of for a few years now (really? Wow, time flies) and we're all starting to move on from what we're doing to do to HOW we're going to deliver it to the world at large. One of us has a novel, one of us has a graphic novel, and I have my collection. For the latter two of us, we're thinking epublishing is the way to go, at least until a large enough following has been built to warrant a printing. Our novelist is on his way (in the other's eyes) to getting his novel noticed by a large publishing house, just have to see how it works for them.

But the thing is, even though there were stretches of several months in between meetings for a bit there, we always tried to produce for each other, to show progress. Like having a workout buddy, it helps to be held accountable to some type of deadline, and nobody does that better than your peers. Go find a writer's group that matches your genre. If you can't find one, start one up. Facebook, Twitter, Craigslist; go gather your posse.
