Weekly Writing Prompt — February 7, 2012 Edition

Writers:

GREETINGS: I hope this finds you all healthy and enjoying life. Personally, I’m celebrating that the winds are calm today.
WORD JAZZ: You all have one week to get in your submissions for Word Jazz. Deadline is Feb. 14 at midnight. Just email them to this address. I have six submissions thus far. We need at least three more. This is your time to say, “Hey, I’m a writer!” and mean it. Make it a priority. In Your Life. At least through now until April 10. You may just make it a habit, you never know.
SNOVALLEY WRITES! 2012 WRITING CONTEST: Submissions are coming in! Thanks for advertising this on your blogs, facebooks, via email, and of course, word of mouth. Please continue to do so. Deadline is March 3. Details can be found on our contest page on our website.
WRITING WORK SESSION: Our Regular Writing Work Session is this Sunday, Feb. 12 at 3 p.m. in the North Bend Library. Please RSVP if you plan to attend. Bring your lappie, notebook and pen, and a calendar (either electronic or old-school date book).
WRITING OPPORTUNITIES: The 2012 Emerald City Writer’s Conference in October, which is sponsored by the Greater Seattle Romance Writers Association. Attached is information on their contest as well as the conference. I urge you to take advantage of this. Many of you have been published locally, now it’s time to reach for regionally.
TAKE TIME OUT TO WRITE: Don’t forget our writing meet ups — three times a week in various valley locales. Meet your fellow SnoValley Writes! members and get real-time critique, feed back and inspiration!

“But words are things, and a small drop of ink,
Falling, like dew upon a thought, produces
That which makes thousands, perhaps millions, think.” ~ Lord Byron
