Here's a sampling of some of the topics we've covered inthe past few years. That's not to say that we won't ever cover a topic again - we usually do, in fact! As our group's needs change, we sometimes bring out old lessons, dust them off, and find new up-to-date information to share in different ways. We like to be flexible and help all levels of writers get up to speed and conquer their writing goals.
