Why Writers Need Support

The best thing that happened to me in the writing world was joining a writers critique group.  Everyone in the group had more experience than me and they were willing to take me under their wing.  As I approached my first writing deadline, they held my feet to the fire and helped me cross the finish line on time.

I'm in a new writing environment now.  Although the world around me has changed dramatically, one thing remains the same; I need a support group to stay focused.  Most of my networking is done through cyber-space.  I created this writer's bistro to bring writers together.  It's an online support group.  Many of the writers here have been writing all their lives.  They are here because they know how challenging it is to be a writer.  They are willing to share their wisdom with new authors.  Everyone wins.  The talented writers get an opportunity mentor the next generation of writers and newcomers are surrounded by cyber-space supporters.
