THE CRAFT
How do you construct a compelling plot? In what situations should you use adverbs? What makes a character memorable? How do you persuade an editor to take a second look?
The CWC offers myriad ways to learn and tune up your craft.

Is there a way to participate at a distance? After over 30 years of writing fiction with minimal success (8 short stories and a couple of novels POD published), I no longer have access to a critique group.
