writer to writer

DoraI write a weekly column for Barnes & Noble.com's website (click here to visit). It has afforded me the opportunity to talk to writers of all stripes -- from bigtime literati, to small press gems to self-published iconoclasts –– and to bring attention to these wonderful scribes. If you are interested in being interviewed for Writer to Writer please contact me at Jill@JillDearman.com. And please show your team spirit by posting comments on the blog. Previous columns are archived here in PDF form. Enjoy them and buy the books, people! Support your fellow pencil-pushers.
