It sounds like you had a really fruitful time. I'm glad you felt encouraged and joining a writing group sounds like a really good idea, especially as being part of one was helpful and fun before :)
Thanks, funkyinfishnet. It was definitely fruitful and encouraging. :-) And, yes, I probably could use the motivation and support of a writing group. It's a very good idea.
I always find that talking to fellow writers and getting their thoughts on my work is really challenging and really useful for my writing.
That's so true. Talking to other writers is extremely useful. It's really hard writing in a vacuum. You need some kind of feedback. And I completely agree with you about the way conversations with other writers can really challenge you and force you to improve your work. It really makes you up your game. :-)
