When I started on this journey of being a writer I knew nothing about writing except I wanted to tell my stories. I joined a RWA chapter, where other romance authors helped me. They were with me, answering questions, reading my chapters, encouraging me and showing me the basics. That was over 25 years ago. If I hadn't had their guidance, I never would've made it.
Things haven't changed. I've come out with my first Indie book, and my writer friends were right there with me, helping me through the process, answering questions, and pointing me in the right direction. Kathleen and Suzanne, met with me, answered my question and told me stuff I didn't know to ask about. I am overwhelmed with their generous spirit. And for me, knowing such great people is encouraging, and humbling. Thank you, ladies.
P.S. I went to the RWA conference this year and my friends were there, asking me how my energy was holding up, did I need anything. I had sisters who worried for me and watching over me. It was amazing.

You're right. Nothing like a sisterhood.

ReplyDeleteThank you, Sandra. It was a lot of fun to do.
ReplyDeleteLeann, congrats on your indie book. Good to see you at RWA. Glad you were able to make it.
ReplyDeleteWriters are some of the most generous people I've ever met. Talk about support and guidance freely given. They're all over that.
ReplyDeleteCongrats, Leann....so glad you were able to attend RWA!!
ReplyDeleteThe only thing I forgot to do was take pictures at RWA.
ReplyDeleteLeann it was so good to see you at conference!
ReplyDeleteIt was wonderful to see you, Leann and to get a hug from you. You are always on my mind and in my prayers. Writers are the best friends ever :)
ReplyDeleteI was glad to see you at RWA. You are so right. Writers helping writers is an awesome way to give back to our sisterhood.
ReplyDeleteWriter friends are AMAZING!!
ReplyDeleteI think that's been the best part of my writing journey so far---meeting wonderful writers who become real friends.
And Leann, I still remember you and Ruth Axtell praying over me in the prayer room at ACFW in Denver. Thanks to those prayers my back pain was at a minimum during that conference!
Hugs, Patti Jo
The support and encouragement of fellow writers is essential. Congratulations on your new indie book!
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy I had the chance to meet you at RWA, Leann. I couldn't agree more about the support of our writer I ends. They make this journey so much better.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the Indie book!
One thing I'm sure of, there is no shortage of pictures floating around!
What a blessing you are, Leann. So proud to call you my sister. Hugs. :)
ReplyDeleteLeann, I couldn't agree more! RWA members are among the most caring and supportive of friends. And it was great to see you at RWA, even if it was only across the room!
