The
Writers’ Bloc was very fortunate to have an afternoon with
writer-publisher Lynn Michell, author of several books (including White Lies,
which we read and discussed with the Book Group), and owner of Linen
Press, which publishes books by women authors. We submitted 18 of the
pieces we had written over the past three years and Lynn made truthful
comments about them. She shared the general comments with us during the
meeting, and then sent back our pieces, with detailed editing, saying
she had read some of them as if they were actual submissions for
publication. She even said she was impressed with our efforts, and that
it made her miss having a writing group. I think we can all be fairly
proud of ourselves. And we’ll look forward to inviting Lynn back
sometime in the future, with the hope of showing her how we have
progressed, thanks to her comments and suggestions.
