Cherry Hill's Autum Finery and An Annoucement

As the nights turn chilly, the plants and trees start the process of bedding down for the winter. Cherry Hill's trees are fast on the way to their brief moment of glory, dressing out in gold, orange, scarlet, burgundy, and yellow. The bushes are sharing their berries and the squirrels scurry to collect the acorns and pecans for those long winter months.

May your fall be bright and your winter cozy.











Check my new job: WFWA Write-A-Thin Program Coordinator
I'll be working with Catherine Vignolini to help WFWA members to keep working. The main push will be in January. Do you have any writing tips or great quotes to share? We'll need one a day. ;-)

  4. Zan Marie: Congratulations! Check on this first for the exact quote, but I always liked the Elmore Leonard tip: "Try to leave out the part that readers tend to skip." Maybe that'll work for you one day.

    1. Thanks, Charlotte! We're really concentrating on tips and tricks for editing. If you have some, I'd love to see them.

      BTW, I shared a link to my 'Tea With My Inner Editor' a couple of days ago. It's still a wonderful piece and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for the inspiration. :-)
