20 SEPTEMBER MEETING NOTES

Nine people attended: Casey (read a chapter from Francine Stein), Glenda, JoAnne, Jonathan, Lance, Maddie (read a chapter from Hit Me), Marcia, Richard and Shari (read a revised chapter from Lost in Dance).

News & Notes

The RWA Orange County Chapter’s anthology Romancing the Pages is finally available for $2.99 on Amazon for Kindle. The romance anthology includes Rosie’s “Melting the Ice,” a short story based on her YA romance novel On Thin Ice.

Reminder: our first craft-related reading discussion will take place on 27 September. Stace will lead a discussion of chapters 1-3 of James Scott Bell’s Plot & Structure. Please read the assigned chapters and be ready to discuss the material. The craft-related reading is our way to improve both our writing and our critiques by way of providing a common knowledge base and vocabulary.
