The first would be Jason F. Wright (author of THE WEDNESDAY LETTERS and CHRISTMAS JARS)http://jasonfwright.com/column/Help-wanted-Someone-to-coach-you-to-say-No.html<br /><br />I met him briefly at a Time Out for Women event in 2008, and I came home from that event inspired to revisit my childhood dream to be an author someday. After I finished writing my first novel, I met Jason for lunch one afternoon, and he gave me some great advice and encouragement. We still chat online from time to time, and he continues to encourage me when I start to wonder if I'll ever be published.<br /><br />I'm also extremely grateful for Brenda Drake (@brendadrake)<br />Laura Bowers (@_LauraBowers)<br />and Christie Wright Wild (@ChristieWild)<br /> who have all given me valuable critiques and feedback on my writing<br /><br />and Katie Davis (@KatieDavisBurps) who taught me how to use twitter, enabling me to meet and connect with so many great writers!!Veronica Bartleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04452926814324819692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5375946976298120641.post-9062483998362237842012-07-03T22:52:28.530-04:002012-07-03T22:52:28.530-04:00I tweeted about your giveaway at https://twitter.c...I tweeted about your giveaway at https://twitter.com/Freemom01/status/220349165274796032<br /><br />@freemom01Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10966241468533764102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5375946976298120641.post-52792259511824164232012-07-03T22:49:48.941-04:002012-07-03T22:49:48.941-04:00I'm following I Write for Apples on Twitter. ...I'm following I Write for Apples on Twitter. @freemom01<br /><br />My email address is at http://about.me/pennyfreeman or on my wibiya tool bar on my blog at http://amindwandering.blogspot.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10966241468533764102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5375946976298120641.post-8203928417329876522012-07-03T22:48:18.228-04:002012-07-03T22:48:18.228-04:00I'm following on GFC and on your RSS feed.

She is an amazing writer in her own right, and her writing/editorial blog has been a wonderful help to me. She is also friendly, personable, conscientious, and committed to standing by and expounding her beliefs. That's definitely something that I admire and want to emulate. <br /><br />I'd prefer Scrivner for PC.<br />I have Emotion Thesaurus.

Besides being one of my favorite authors, he is also the source of a lot of great writer how-to knowledge. He puts out a nifty tutorial newsletter called "The Secret".

I stumbled across a blog post of hers (http://brodiashton.blogspot.com/) where she vowed to send out queries until she got 100 rejections. Turns out she received multiple offers to rep, but noted that even after her book had sold to Harper Collins (in 3 says!), the agent query rejections still rolled in. Needless to say, it was just what I needed to hear to keep me going at the time. Thanks Brodi! <br /><br />P.S. Brodi's second novel will come out in January 2013. The first, EVERNEATH, is on shelves now!<br /><br />@AnnMarie_Walker<br />www.annmariewalker.blogspot.comAnn Marie Walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03112647109520950160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5375946976298120641.post-53978115183327370472012-07-03T11:06:25.849-04:002012-07-03T11:06:25.849-04:00I tweeted about it HereI tweeted about it <a href="https://twitter.com/SarahAhiers/status/220171320271437824" rel="nofollow">Here</a>Sarah Ahiershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02795455714801965956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5375946976298120641.post-24561620463709848102012-07-03T11:04:41.725-04:002012-07-03T11:04:41.725-04:00Yay!
