If anyone's interested, please respond. Camille Scaysbrook verona_beach@geocities.com P.S. If anyone wants to read some of my stuff it's at : http:\\www.geocities.com\Hollywood\Theater\6442 >> Boy am I glad you sent this post. I write poetry, short stories, criticism, essays, etc, etc and have been hooking up with other writers to do mutual critiques. I'm pretty regularly published, and actually get paid for some of the things I do. I mean, beyond free copies of someone's journal and a pat on the back. Real Money. Imagine That. Right now I'm doing mutual critiques with two other writers regularly, and have two more that have expressed interest but haven't sent anything yet. So, let's make a list :) Brendan, you out there? And do everyone Beg Scottie to get in on it, if for no other reason than to bug the Hell out of us to write properly. All theory aside, that's what matters. Style comes second. Jim
