Critique Time
Luck has nothing to do with it! Writers work hard to get their thoughts on paper. Bring an excerpt and questions you have about your current or future writing projects and members can critique and offer each other help with writing projects.
USA Today Bestselling author Naima Simone loves writing sizzling romances with heart, a touch of humor and snark. Her books have been featured in The Washington Post and Entertainment Weekly, and described as balancing “crackling, electric love scenes with exquisitely rendered characters caught in emotional turmoil.”
She is wife to Superman, or his non-Kryptonian, less bullet proof equivalent, and mother to the most awesome kids ever. They all live in perfect, sometimes domestically-challenged bliss in the southern United States.
Naima’s presentation will be on plotting.
