So you want to be a writer? Essential tips for aspiring novelists
Everybody who has ever felt the need to write knows the silent hour. I have come
across many such people – and indeed many such hours – during my writing and teaching life. I’ve been teaching now for the best part of 20 years. That’s a lot of chalk and a lot of red pencil. I haven’t loved every minute of it, but I’ve loved most. There’s been a National Book award for one
student. A Booker prize for another. Guggenheims. Pushcarts. Mentorships. Friendships. But let’s be honest, there has been burnout too. There’s
been weeping and gnashing of teeth. There have been walkouts. Collapses. Regret.
Join Bonnie in a writerly discussion. We can’t wait to share with you. Would you like to see your blog or website promoted here?

Writer's Chatroom Setback |
You will discover the new website for the Writer's Chatroom looks exceptionally empty.
On Thursday evening the website broke beyond repair. By Friday evening a replacement site went up.
Those people who say once something is on the internet it is there forever have pants afire.
My warning... you can break a site with a few keystrokes, like your writing projects, if you
keep a blog or website, back it up before each major change.
