I'm glad there are more ladies out there who like to put their thoughts and ideas down on paper or onto computer. Perhaps if there are enough we could persuade W&H to let us have a seperate slot?

I've done a couple of courses by correspondence course but got fed up with the assumption that I wanted to write to sell. Every one started: identify your market...I wanted to write better not tailor my work to fit a specific niche. That could come later, I thought. Needless to say I didn't complete the courses...

Most of my writing tends to be the reflective, musing sort (I also keep journals - does anyone else?) but now and again I start on a fiction idea. I have no stamina unfortunately but I'm working on it...most of my fiction tends to be the middle-aged version of chic-lit (there's a name for it, can anyone remember what though?). What does anyone else write?
