For anyone in the Madison area who is interested in writing romance or women's fiction, consider dropping by a WisRWA (Wisconsin Romance Writers of America) meeting. About 20 of us get together to discuss all matters of writing, from the craft of writing, to approaching agents and editors, to promote yourself and your books once you are published.
We are made up of writers from all levels. Beginner to published author, this group is supportive, fun, and a great way to meet people on the writing journey.
Follow the link at the bottom of the page and learn all about the great people who make up the WisRWA organization.
