I joined WNBA in 2007 when I attended the annual Author’s Showcase at the Mechanic’s Institute Library. I am a teacher, writer and lover of books, so the organization is a good fit for me. I am presently working on a novel of the Crime Fiction genre. Writing is a struggle but as I have learned through the many published authors I have met through WNBA it is only half the battle. Being a writer today means understanding how to market your work and networking with like-minded people. In the short time I have been with the organization, I have met a variety of creative women who have inspired me to move forward with my work and get over that dreaded “writer’s block.”
