I am blessed to be invited to one of their homes several times a year for wriitng retreats and brainstorming sessions. We went away for a few days last summer too. That was great! <br /><br />Good for you....working hard at your desk...writing those stories. : )Carrie Turanskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13866179102754248664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4945907563318808519.post-22641058102102857902012-03-06T12:28:50.906-08:002012-03-06T12:28:50.906-08:00LOL, I never liked group projects in school for th...LOL, I never liked group projects in school for the same reason, Sandra! And often, the group was like a rudderless boat...no one following up, few contributing, no decisions being made.<br /><br />That said, the long weekends the three of us spend brainstorming are so helpful to me.<br /><br />Though we all write romantic suspense, and if anyone were to eavesdrop, they'd probably call 911 given all the murder and mayhem ideas being bandied about. :)RoxanneRustandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03443712316288965799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4945907563318808519.post-58938384952531960892012-03-06T12:26:40.760-08:002012-03-06T12:26:40.760-08:00Winnie,

I can get so tangled up in convoluted descriptions of a plot that even I don't know what I'm talking about. <br /><br />When we get together, the others print out whatever they've come up with so far. That helps me get started, just seeing the germ of an idea in black and white. Is anyone else here a visual, rather than auditory learner also, or is it just me? :)RoxanneRustandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03443712316288965799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4945907563318808519.post-38708090189783623622012-03-06T11:21:16.610-08:002012-03-06T11:21:16.610-08:00Roxanne, Love this post.

We've met once and plan to do so 2-3 thimes a year and I LOVED it. We all came away with fresh story ideas and it was amazing how our ideas all fed off of each other in exciting ways.Winnie Griggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02295070748234710260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4945907563318808519.post-31246825743051722732012-03-06T10:54:15.169-08:002012-03-06T10:54:15.169-08:00I like flying solo but I do appreciate and value i...I like flying solo but I do appreciate and value input. I have trouble "talking" about my book with people or even plotting ahead of time.

My daughter was happy to finally get some slightly below freezing, but sunny weather so she could take out her horse without sinking in mud! <br /><br />I like your question. In my other work I was always a fly solo kind of person. The type who hated group projects in school, because...well, I'd do most of the work! But I loooove brainstorming ideas with fellow writers and getting feedback on a scene I'm struggling with. It can be incredibly energizing.Sandra Orchardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01236883194496601011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4945907563318808519.post-69742277916812177792012-03-06T10:20:24.022-08:002012-03-06T10:20:24.022-08:00MK, I LOVE Montana.

I've set quite a few books in your beautiful state.<br /><br />And yes--I'm savoring every minute of being able to do my horse chores in the morning without a jacket.
