Yesterday one of the mystery-writing organizations I belong to and serve as corresponding secretary, Sisters in Crime Los Angeles, hosted its annual Holiday party at the South Pasadena Library. With seventy attendees, it was the best turnout we have ever had! Everybody pitched in and helped to bring food, pull out tables, set up and clean up--just a tremendous and festive response.
What's nice about our group is that everybody cares about their writing careers as well as the overall membership. By being a member of SinC/LA, I have learned how to improve my stories as well as how to market my works.
Yes, the act of writing is generally a solitary activity, but don't use that as an excuse not to get involved in your local writers' group.
We do need one another.
