Topic: I'm no longer active BUT...

Hi, I've wanted to stop by for a while to give thanks and tell everyone what an amazing place TNBW was for me. I stayed on the site for quite a while, workshopped a whole novel here and read many members' entire work. I learned a ton and I always tell everyone that my time here was invaluable. I am now a published author, and there is no doubt in my mind that the time I spent here helped me get there. If you are new, stick with it. It is a lot of work, but critiques are critical to one's grows as an author.

Thanks, everyone. Write on!

Just b/c you're published doesn't mean you should leave. Workshop the next novel. And so on. That's what I'm doing.

How sad to see you go, Ingrid. Your stories are awesome. Thanks for pointing me towards TNBW!

Yes, multiple critics are always useful, at any stage. Sadly, I don't have very much time anymore. Evil day job and everything. I do have beta readers and a critique partner. So that is how I manage these days smile
