xxxxxxxxxxxx | WelcomeJacey Bedford writes fantasy and science fiction, she's been published on both sides of the Atlantic and currently has a fantasy novel submitted to publishers. She's co-organiser of the Milford Writers' Conference, an annual workshopping week for a small group of published SF writers. She blogs on Live Journal. What does she blog about? Writing, books, movies, local history, family history, reminiscences, music, things that interest her on a local or global scale. What doesn't she blog about? She doesn't use her blog as therapy. Feel free to friend her. She also has a Facebook and Twitter presence and she reviews on Goodreads (see side panel). Friend her if you wish. (see below). A firm advocate of critique groups Jacey was a member of the (now defunct) Recog email crit group for eight years and thanks all her co-critiquers for their excellent input.. Now, in addition to attending Milford annually, she takes part in Northwrite SF, a quarterly face-to-face critique group for speculative fiction writers within striking distance of the north of England. Jacey maintains the Northwrite website and you'll find her links for writers there. (See below) Advice for writers: apply the seat of your pants to a chair, your fingers to the keyboard and write. When you've finished, polish it. When it's as good as you can possibly make it, format it correctly and submit it. Then apply the seat of your pants to your chair again... etc. Rinse and repeat. There is no other way. If you don't write it and send it out there, you'll never get published. |
