**NJCWG WRITERS' WORKSHOP**
On March 14, 2005 I'm going to offer Writer's Workshop to the group. This is where you put to use the skills I've been teaching. As in the past, our workshop will BEGIN PROMPTLY at 6:30 pm and run through until 9:00 pm. Please try not to be late so that the writing of the others are not disturbed. You will be given an assignment, we'll write, we'll critique, we'll rewrite. Then you'll be given an other assignment and we'll run it again.. Bring paper, writing utensils and an active imagination. As always, your writing task will be handed to you when you arrive with no prior warning as to the topic. I will try to chose topics that may make for sale-able manuscripts. Might as well have our work do double-duty.
*AGENTS AND ARTICLES ON WRITING*
For those of you thinking about agents, there is great CBA Agent list at: http://www.christianwritersinfo.net/writertips.htm
When you get to the site, click on WRITING TIPS. It is at the top of the page, in the second row of the menu, all the way on the right. There are also a number of EXCELLENT articles on that page. Check out.
