Second draft on the writing group

Just popped into the library for a regular visit, and also for tonight's meeting of the writing group. Here's hoping it goes a *lot* better than it did the last time. I almost brought along the rough draft of "An Issue of Blood", but the manuscript is so hobble-scobble, it's not really the sort of thing I'd want to be reading from in front of a bunch of people. I'm really focusing on trying to come up with a plot for the follow-up I've been tinkering with. I have a premise and I have an idea of where it's going, I just have to figure out what leads everything there.

Good writing group meeting

I was concerned that the selections from my vampire stories wouldn't go over well, but I was relieved that they did. The gal who organized the group loved the fact that I'm writing the follow-up to "An Issue of Blood" in journal form, and she reccommended that I keep it that way since, in her words, "It makes it come alive, like she's talking to you, even though she's confiding in her journal." Even the older lady in the group liked the details, and the young fellow to the right of me even chuckled over some of the funnier details. Hopefully by the next time the group meets, I'll have more of it typed up to share with them.
