Noble Pen Meeting

April 28th, 2011
Scott’s Family Restaurant
1906 Blairs Ferry Rd NE, Cedar Rapids

There are two kinds of folks who sit around thinking about how to kill people: psychopaths and mystery writers.
— Richard Castle

Victories

I sent out four beta readers’ copies. Current count: I’ve lost count on how many I’ve sent out. None received back.

Ciuin finished another declaration for the artists’ initiative. She plans to let Sam Raimi know that his characters are cheap stereotypes. I doubt he will be surprised.

News

From George: A public domain copy of THE GREAT GADSBY. And you can read about the author here. Apparently, Wright never used the letter ‘E’ in the entire book, which mean he had as much luck with typewriters as Ciuin has with computers.

From Dylan: An nice article about how not to freak out while writing a novel. Actually, it’s not all that nice.
