Thoroughly enjoyed attending the RNA-N lunch meeting today at The Smith Arms in Beckwithshaw, Harrogate... so
lovely to catch up with a number of old pals again after so long. Sadly, several I'd love to have seen, couldn't be
there. It must be about 20 years or more, since I first attended my first "Flying Ducks"
meeting.
I enjoyed the fascinating chat around the
table today, which was mostly about inspiration and the different ways in which
many us found we got inspired to write. Some wonderfully apt quotes and sayings
were read out too.
I have to say it was interesting to hear quite
so many varied contributions, and to see that so many more writers are now
embracing the eBook phenomenon. As one other lady said... Kindle has now
liberated her... and I do agree. Indeed just like so many of us, who've
struggled for years to find agents or publishers, it's great, that now with
Kindle we can get our books out there to readers, and to a large degree be in control of
the books' destinies ourselves. Onwards and upwards, guys!
Good luck to
everyone who's just got e-published !
Wonderful to hear about those attending who are having
such success with their very latest books, whether printed or digital. For instance,
I'm totally in awe of the number of books published by the likes of those around the table... Ken McCoy, Val Wood,
Freda Lightfoot, Leah Fleming, and others, of course. Freda made a fleeting mention that she writes
two books a year!!! I think we all gasped when she said that! Oh how I
wish!!!
Great day... came away most inspired.
