Hey William--just saw your post on my guest interview at Confuzzled Books last week. Thanks. I'd be happy to Twitter your news out this weekend. I recognized the book cover and your picture when I went to your website. Sounds pretty good. I haven't met a man writing Celtic historicals yet. Very interesting. I'll have to add it to my growing mound of to be read summer books!

Hi William!
I found this site while googling for your website address for a link on my website. Cool! Now I just have to remember to stop in often. There's so much to do and so little hours in a day.

Where has this year gone? I guess when you’re busy time really does fly because mine has certainly taken wing.

WRDF launched in February of 2008 and its membership has grown steadily. I hope that means we are doing something right for our members.

We have some fabulously talented writers among us. I would encourage you to take a little time to visit a couple new pages each week. The photos, videos, blurbs, excerpts, bios, blogs, graphics, and I could go on and on, are super fun and so interesting. No one has an excuse to be bored on this site with so much to read and see.

I hope you’ve kept up with WRDF’S newest features. All are great promotional opportunities for writers and great fun for our readers.

The Tipping Point Workshops (TTP WORKSHOP TAB),
The Contest announcement page (CONTEST TAB)
The Bookmark giveaway page (BOOKMARK TAB)
The Free reads page (FREE READS TAB).

Our book discussion club, LOST IN A GOOD BOOK, is going strong. We’ve had good participation and if you haven’t kept up with some of our adventurous discussion comments, you’ve missed the action.

We’ve also launched a new online newsletter, WRDF Online. Be sure to open and read your copy when it comes. You never know what you might be missing.

Lastly, you’ll notice a new WRDFCalendar Tab on your page. What a nice way to keep all our members notified of current and up-coming events. You’ll notice that Fridays are Guest blog days at Between the Lines. Why not take a moment, check the calendar, and reserve a couple of spots for yourself during 2009. You can request your dates at: promo@lyndacoker.com

Thank you for spending time with us. Stay safe and well,
Lynda

Thanks - nope, I write and my business partner/best friend is the artist. So together we publish a series of illustrated fantasy eBooks, and are always looking for more talented writers (and artists) interested in joining us and writing the tales of our fantasy world, Taqqara.
