By Darlene SchultzIt’s no joke that April would be a great month to take the drive to Kirkersville, Ohio, to visit the Kirkersville Writer’s Club (KWC). If you’re looking for encouragement and support to take the next step in your writing, this could be just the place to begin. I personally had struggled for years to complete my first novel. I’m pleased to report that I published it on Amazon.com, titled For the Love of Emmaline: An Inspirational Amish Love Story (Part 1), followed by a second one, For the Love of Emmaline: The Resolution (Part 2). Without the Kirkersville Writer’s Club, these would still be sitting idle on my computer. Our group can boast of other authors who have taken the plunge, as well to self-publishing on Amazon. Doris Cáceres-Schumick can also be found on Amazon for her book Why I Left Public School Teaching. Doris has also published a group book for us (KWC writers) of short stories that we each submitted. It too can be found on Amazon under the title The Starving Writers of KWC: Anthology. Mary Hickey and Joel Linnabary also have several published works on Amazon that you might want to check out too. The completely transparent, accepting environment has been a huge motivation for me and could be for any new aspiring writer. You would be a “fool” to not make the trip to join us this April or at least join us online via Zoom if that works best for you. Your name could be added to this list of “published authors” if that’s your goal, or you could attend and just make new friends. Hope to see you soon!
