The Light Brigade: Our Own Cyber Small-Group for Writers
by Marcia Moston @MarciaMoston
Many of us would agree with writing greats Stephen King,
Isaac Asimov, and Ernest Hemingway in saying “writing is a lonely job.” Some
days, apart from the snoring pooch at our feet and a few quick forays into
Facebook feeds, the only people we talk to are the imaginary ones in our heads.
And sometimes even they fail to show up. Even though we don’t see immediate
results, we remind ourselves we aren’t being non-productive. But on those days
when all we have to show after hours at the computer is a hundred-word
paragraph, we’re tempted to think that person who suggested we should get a
real job was right after all.
