Fiction Scribe

The Scribes blog carnival will be posted up this Wednesday. The carnival focuses on almost everything to do with writing. If you didn’t get your posts submitted this time and would still like to get in on the link love and sharing your writing experience, you can still submit your posts at any time for October’s edition.

The Scribe newsletter complete with its new look will also be going out on Wednesday. If you would like to sign up for the newsletter and/or have your work/writing site featured in it, feel free to contact me using the “contact me” button on the right.

Poems in my Head, created by Healthy BPM’s Neelima is still going strong. If you’re looking for a place to get a little bit of everything poetry, check out her blog.

Gillian has extended her contest so more people can have a chance to win the new prizes she’s thrown in: David Kamp’s The United States of Arugula. She has ten copies to give away, so get your story and recipe(s) in while you can.

In case you missed any of the installments, I’ve put up quite a few more publishing opportunities so be sure to check those out and let me know if you get published.

Starting with an interview with erotic writer PG Forte this Friday, August is going to be filled with excellent author interviews including a book by a motivational speaker as well as a fantasy writer.

Also starting in August will be the chapter by chapter discussion of Bird by Bird by Anne Lamott. The first discussion will take place on August 14th, so have your copy and read up to chapter two by then so we can talk about chapter one.

LiteraryMary.com still has a group of people getting together to do a self-paced erotica writing course. For those 18 and older, there is also an erotica section to workshop the pieces you write during the course. Feel free to register and contact me, moderator silver, if you need anything.

Finally, I’d like to mention I’ve been a very happy member of the Aspiring Writers group for some time now, run by the lovely Sara. They have a group blog where you can have your work or an interview of you posted. It’s a very nice group full of interesting people. If you’re looking for a smaller group that will provide writing support, check them out.
