"The
Willamette Writers Group meets in a beautiful old church. I've
spoken in church before, but not about writing (grin). It was
a lovely venue—and full of lovely people, too."
Willamette
Writers Group
April 2002
In
April, I was very pleased to be the guest of the Willamette Writers
Group for their monthly meeting at the Old Church in Portland,
Oregon. My topic was "What I learned after I published my
first novel," and the short version is "I had a lot
to learn, and at this point, I don't think anybody stops learning
about writing as long as they continue to write, there's always
something to get better at."
