Writers, artists, authors, publishers, and agents – let’s start some conversations. This group (and the blog that goes with it) has been created to start conversations that anyone can join. Our topics will be books, writing, publishing, creativity, inspiration, and anything else that seems like a fun topic.
We will use comments, WebMention, and ActivityPub so this can be a social interaction, an inspiration to blog about something, or a casual chat. Perhaps all those things at once.
