I decided to start this group to help the solo entrepreneur or published writer get to the next level.  This is NOT a writing group.  This is about the business of publishing. The level where you don't have to worry about attracting agents or publishers, but when where you pull them to you. The purpose of this group is: 1) To get off social media and meet contacts face to face 2) To get resources and information to make your publishing goals a reality and no longer "a thing" you want to do 3) M …

The best writers of our generation are overlooked. Only .03% of manuscripts submitted to publishers get published, and the average self-published book sells under 20 copies. The problem in these situations is the same--it is enormously difficult for writers to get discovered and publish successfully.  Writer's Bloq is created for writers, by writers who have experienced this discovery problem first hand. Writer's Bloq is about you and your writing. On Writer's Bloq, you can share your writing wi …

This is a group for writers who want to master powerful strategies to write better. The organizer, Charles Euchner, is a former teacher and administrator at Yale and Harvard and the author of a number of acclaimed works on politics, sports, civil rights, and more. The approach: Euchner has developed what he called a "brain-based system" for writing well. What's that mean?  It means that if you understand how the brain works -- how the brain gets engaged or confused, what makes it excited or bore …
