The information regarding a “new writer’s group” focusing on non-fiction is a decade old. The group started, then disbanded a year or two later. Please disregard this posting. I’d contact the Webmaster to ask for this paragraph to be removed – but this comment box appears to be the only way to communicate regarding this matter. Barbara Allen

Dear Writers Group Leader:

Experiencing a lack of enthusiasm in your group?
Need activities?
Want an interesting book for discussion?

The soon to be published, Writers Can Be Deadly, may come in handy for your organization.

This crisply written murder mystery takes place at a writers conference on the Oregon Coast
sponsored by the West Coast Writers Association. It is a spoof on this kind of activity, but
discusses many aspects of the writing process in a serious fashion.

Should your group be interested, discounts will be given for multiple copies ordered.
(The book will be 180 pages in length; projected cost $14.95)

(The author has a Bachelor of Science with minor in English from the US Air Force Academy, A Masters
in English from The University of Denver, and has taught composition and writing for The US Office of
Personnel Management and a college in the Midwest. )
