You're right about it being nice to meet people who can appreciate your concerns/joys/disasters... There's a local Christmas lunch but I'm not sure I can make it - clashes with something else. :( Charlie I like the mix of a speaker and a time to chat, although we don’t always talk about writing.

There’s a local Christmas lunch but I’m not sure I can make it – clashes with something else. :(

(Doesn't 'chapter' sound official? But I suppose it's appropriate for a group of novellists :) ) We just have lunch. It would be quite nice to learn a bit of the history, but I find it's good just to meet other people in real life who are dealing with similar experiences as your own. Are you going to the RNA Christmas party? We don’t have speakers at our chapter. (Doesn’t ‘chapter’ sound official? But I suppose it’s appropriate for a group of novellists :) ) We just have lunch.

It's good to have other writers to get feedback from. Sounds as though I ought to find out where my nearest group is. It’s good to have other writers to get feedback from.

I'm still waiting for the extra four hours in a day I asked Father Christmas for in 2005. Do you know where your local lot meet? Maybe one of your online buddies already goes there. Mind you, if you're looking for exciting stories, I'm not sure it's the place to be. (And who'd want to listen to endless tales of other people's success?) Charlie Sharon

I'd also have to drag my other half. Hate going to things alone. LOL. I'm always torn between the idea that it would be great to know other writers (it is 'great' to know other writers even if only via the internet and I'd miss that connection with like-minded people now) and being left feeling as I'm not a true writer has have nothing exciting to tell. :-) Thanks for sharing this. It was very interesting. It’s tempting but time is always of the essence for me these days and I suspect would be my biggest problem. I’d also have to drag my other half. Hate going to things alone.

Why not contact your local rep and ask if you can join them as a guest? Charlie It was about as fab as it gets at my age. :)
