I have taken a year off teaching, intent to write a lot and be more involved in the writing community.

I am spending a lot of time writing and on the internet raising my profile, but only a little time socialising in the writing community.

I must make more of an effort in this last area because the Western Australian Writing Community is full of quality people – generous with their praise and support. Also skilled writers.
