I think I would too....I've only let my husband and my dad (who is an author) read the first few chapters of my WIP, so a critique group would just make me so nervous. I know I need it, but don't have the nerve yet.Sherrinda Ketchersidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07581676437345249386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8539581256374625880.post-72667891492992676992009-03-19T06:08:00.000-04:002009-03-19T06:08:00.000-04:00Hi Jennifer,Thank you so much for stopping by!

I've been thinking about your carrot cake recipe all morning!<BR/><BR/>There are so many good historicals its hard to know where to start! I love Lynn Austin's Gods and Kings series (although I wouldn't necessarily categorize them as historical romance). I loved Deeanne Gist's A Bride Most Begrudging. I recently read Siri Mitchell's Constant Heart which was excellent. <BR/><BR/>I could go on, and on, and on! But I won't overwhelm you!Jody Hedlundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12424307540530719614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8539581256374625880.post-13406553717082731052009-03-18T10:45:00.000-04:002009-03-18T10:45:00.000-04:00Oh, I like how you split your list in half with wr...Oh, I like how you split your list in half with writing information on the tail end. I realize I put a lot of stuff about my writing in my list of 25 so it was smart to do it the way you did it. I think the one genre I'm most terrified of writing is historical fiction so I admire people who do so. Nice post!Cindy R.

They strengthened my writing muscles and got me to the level I'm at today.<BR/><BR/>Maybe I will have to dig through my files, though, and dust them off!
