It "normalizes" the whole struggle, which makes it a tiny bit easier for each of us. Hugs to you and your writing partners from me!

WWFC members were so generous, and even courageous, I'd say, in sharing their thoughts and feelings. I think it helps all of us to hear the details of what being, or staying, resilient, really means!@ Thanks, Michelle.

It helps me to realize I am not alone in the struggles I have with my fiction writing. They sound like such a fun group too, though I'm not surprised. I met Chris in person at Prairie Writer's Day (I'd already "met" her on Facebook) and she is just full of energy and good writing karma. :-) Great interview, Carol.

Reading about this group of writing women raised my flagging in-the-middle-of-my-millionth-revision spirits. Just hearing Monica describe revision as soul-sucking made me feel less alone, and gave me some much needed energy. So thanks, Carol and the WWFC, you've inspired me to get back in the ring and go another round. Which is what critique partners are all about. And, just for the record, Carol, I'm glad you're one of mine. Thanks for posting this interview, Carol.
