Getting reader reactions is very helpful. My group tells me the truth, thank God. Readers who are afraid to say what they think and instead use flattery are useless.

I'm sneaky, since I have a group too, but would like to get a heads up ahead of time.
hehehehe

I found you when checking the crit partners thing. It sounded interesting, but I'm still involved with a writers group. Alas, none of them writes mystery and sometimes I wish they did. I hope you find what you need.

At 2:41pm on August 6, 2007, Karen J. Laubenstein said…: Hi Kendall, Dana told me to go ahead and spill the beans on why McCall Smith isn't the GOH for B'con this year. It was news to me, too... here is what she said happened:

DANA STABENOW: You can tell the truth about McCall Smith--that he agreed unconditionally to
attend, and then six months out tried to hold us up for an honorarium and a first class ticket. I told him we could probably muddle along without his august presence. I don't think he was expecting that. Too bad."

At 5:47am on August 6, 2007, Karen J. Laubenstein said…: Ah, there were many who went beyond disappointment when McCall Smith cancelled this year's B'con (I fear he lost more than he realized from that decision), and I was not privy to what changed the schedule. We're excited about Tom Perry coming! Wish you were, too!

At 5:03pm on July 31, 2007, Dennis Venter said…: Hi Kendall. Skinny Legs and All - great book. Have you read Jitterbug Perfume? For me, the best Tom Robbins, but they're all pretty trippy.

At 3:01am on July 31, 2007, spyscribbler said…: I dream of working in a bookstore, too! My DH keeps laughing at me, because it would be quite a cut in pay. Still. I dream of it.

At 12:32pm on July 30, 2007, Linda Ladd said…: Nice to meet you, Kendall. This is such an interesting place. I bet it's nice being married to a fellow writer--they'd understand everything you're going through, good and bad.
