Welcome MWC's Young Emerging Writers!

Hey all,

First let me say hello & that I hope everyone's well. So you've made it here & now it's time to play. For the sake of YEW, you can all disregard rules detailed in the previous post. A quick reminder: to have a piece put up for commentary, you have to send it to me a my netzero email address, then I will post it. PLEASE comment on other people's work as much as possible, as it is the point of this whole enterprise & if you except to get commentary on your work, you have to give some too. Reciprocity is the key to any working relationship!

In any case, Lindsey & I will be inviting people we know & love to visit PS & offer their two cents, and there also might be some guests from Metro Arts & elsewhere. The original idea for PS was to open it up to the general Quad City writing public (& other places) to develop on online, ongoing dialogue, a circle for creative commentary, support for writers/musicians/artists on the DIY scene & a widening of the creative context for the QC area. You are the first to try this whole thing out, so explore the links, come back often & help each other! You can post as much as you like, send me as much to be posted as you like. No one will dominate the conversation & if you all want to correspond via email to further & strengthen this process, do! Whatever it takes for this all to be a huge success & for your work to grow & proliferate. This is where it all starts...

it's in our hands.

xo, your fearless leader
