Romance Writers Weekly ~ How Writers Connect ~ #LoveChatWrite



 This week, on the Romance Writers Weekly blog hop, we were given the following prompt: "Writing can be a lonely business. Share how you stay connected. Do you have an in-person writers group? Or chat with other writers on social media? Share your experiences."

I haven't had an in-person writers group for a very, very long time!  My first writing group was a spin-off of a writing class I  took at NYU. We'd meet once or twice a month in each other's apartments to read and comment on each other's WIPs. But then I moved away from the East Coast and never really found a local group again.

I've belonged to quite a few online groups over the years. I was published by several different publishers and most of them had author groups. I was a member of several online RWA chapters, and they all had groups as well. And I've also joined several small blogging groups, or blog hop groups (like this one!) as well. I also belong to Angela James' Book Boss group, which has been hugely supportive--I highly recommend it!

Up until five years ago I attended conventions, conferences, and book signings on a more-or-less regular basis. And, of course, I have several author friends who I'd occasionally visit with. Currently, ALL my interactions are online mostly via Zoom. 

Do I miss hanging out with other writer-types in person? Of course, I do. So maybe it's time to try and find another  local group.

Now, hop on over to Leslie Hachtel's page to learn how she connects with other writers. And don't forget to check out her book, Come Back to Me.

A Sight to Dream Of
Oberon Book 2.0

Get ready for MORE—more magic, murder, mystery in a mystical smalltown setting!


A Sight to Dream Of, book 2 in the Oberon series, releases in just one week! This is a slow-burn, hero in peril, later in life, paranormal romantic suspense story featuring a (47M) big city financial wizard and the wounded, small town witch (37F) who unwittingly saves him. 


“The Oberon Series needs to come with a warning. HIGHLY ADDICTIVE needs to be printed in very large letters.”

“A Sight to Dream Of is the 2nd book in the series and P.G. again torments her readers by crafting a suspenseful story from beginning to end, but it's the best kind!”


“Sam has brought drama to Oberon and the mystery will suck you in and you will be unable to put this book down.”


Sam Sterling is a man with problems. Including a partner who is trying to kill him, and a nosy reporter, who's just turned up dead. It's going to take a miracle to save him. Or, better yet, an angel.

Marsha Quinn is used to being called a witch. Her abilities as a psychic make a lot of people uncomfortable. But no one has ever thought of her as an angel before! 

Happily Ever After was not a possibility Marsha had envisioned for herself, until Sam the skeptic arrives in Oberon, and teaches her to see past the scars she carries, and the lies he's told her, to the love that lies within their hearts and minds. But now, with danger closing in and a hired assassin gunning for them both, they might not live long enough to enjoy it.


Releases October 24. Now available for Pre-Order https://www.books2read.com/SightDream
