Good thinking, Mad. Thanks 🙂

Oooh I love a good hashtag!! #Denofwriters 🙂

There are quite a few people with WritersDen handles. Nothing with Den of Writers and no hashtag for it. Yet!

That’s a good idea, Debi. Any suggestions? #writingden ? #denofwriterforum ?

This is great, Gipps. I love Jane Friedman’s blogs – I’ve found so many helpful resorces on her site over the last couple of years. Rhanks for posting 🙂

There may be a gin or two downed this weekend. 🙁
