    Finishing my novel in 3 months

    That's a good time to start a project I think! Yeah, I just came out of a supposedly creative job - It was really bad because it drained my creative energy as well...And wasn't very creative! The frustration got so bad, I eventually quit. I was in the games industry. I'm glad you're able to...

    Looking for Fantasy/Spec Fiction Writing Group

    I'm in a similar position. I've been working on my first speculative fantasy novel for several years. I've just taken it into Obsidian for finishing my first draft. Happy to start a group, swap excerpts or discuss. I'm in SE Asia so probably a whole 12 hours out from your timezone! Good luck...
