Last week Jessie outed out writers group: Pretty in Ink, motto: "We Slash the Trash."
I'm going to use Jessie's introductions because she is just so clever, but she neglected to introduce herself.
Jessie Oliveros writes young adult. She actually just finished her first draft in about eight weeks. Amazing. Yes. She has a little boy, who has the same hair color as her, you can't even tell she's holding him in her picture, plus she's about to have another child within the next month. She's revising her draft right now and I can't wait to read it.
Lois Moss also writes young adult. She is a girl from the south and has four children, two of whom she homeschools. (I admire anyone who home schools. I'm way too selfish.) She studied Latin and French in college and used to teach. You may also know her as lotusgirl.
Beth Mann writes women's fiction. She also hails from the south. Beth is the mother of two young children, and her husband is a tech geek which we all know must come in handy as a writer. She gets to go to Starbucks and write sometimes which makes me jealous.
Since Jessie thought we needed a mascot, I decided on a pink ninja bunny, because we're cute, but can slash with the best of them.

Sounds like a great group! I'm happy for y'all!!!
LOL- love the introductions. Y'all have fun now! )sorry, I couldn't resist the 'y'all' comment. :))
I love that you say we've been outed. Only, you have an extra "p" in our name. I like the pink ninja bunny. Maybe one of us can draw him. Beth chose the name, Lois chose the motto, and you chose the mascot. What does that leave for me? I guess I'll just keep our bunny fed.
Sounds like a great group! Can't wait to hear how it goes!
So fun!! LOVE the name and the motto!
I hope your group is as amazing and wonderful as mine is. I can't wait to see y'all take off as writers!
I love the pink bunny ninja thing. Very clever.
Good writing - good critiquing - and good editing!
Your excitement for the group shows. The mascot is fun!
