Hi! My name is Janet Lynne Roots. I'm a British novelist, editor and writer's coach, and I firmly believe everybody has at least one good story to tell. There's just one difference between writers who get published and those who don't: the published ones learned their craft. Writing a novel is more than filling several hundred pages with words. It's about character and comedy, dialogue and description, plotting and pacing, emotions and editing. Most of all it's about creating a little magic in a …

Once the group gets going, I'd like to invite established authors to come talk to us about th …

This group is designed for anyone interested in the art of writing. If you enjoy writing and want to meet like minded individuals willing to read and critique your work, then this is the meet-up for you. The purpose, of course, is to become a better writer and help others to do the same.
