...or am I wrong???
I have to say that I am impressed with Joan and her openness here on Gather. Many writers create a profile, post from their books and then never, or rarely respond to the comments they receive.
Joan is different; she makes an effort to connect and she makes it seem effortless. I am looking forward to her online workshop, as I am currently writing about my 50th year experience here in France.
I've looked for her books through my UK source, The Book Depository and they are currently showing both out of stock. I'll keep checking.
This article and your group will be in the Friday April 25, edition of Today On Gather.
Thanks for all the information. I am very interested in the "Gather Workshops" Could you tell me more about that.
The workshops I've always learned the most from are the ones that provide the hands-on critique of manuscripts in progress. I don't get the impression that this is what Joan Anderson offers.
The Gather workshop is starting today right here at: voice.gather.com.
Joan will lead you through some of the excercises she does at her workshops, and start you on your own journey.
Blessings ~
