What a fun party! California Writers Club-San Francisco Peninsula Branch members celebrated the holidays with 5 literary agents from the Bay Area. President Tory Hartmann and the planning committee provided a lovely environment, delicious Hors d’oeuvre, and delightful energy.
I saw one member whom I hadn’t seen in 5 or more years–Bob Davis. And Angela Berquist! She got one novel (An Unlikely Apprentice) and one non-fiction (The Grail Reclaimed: A New View of an Old Symbol) published!
Joyce Robins (Aunt Lydia’s Trousseau: 28 Stories of a Toronto Girlhood 1923-1938) is published!
Margaret Davis received her advance reading copy of her novel (Straight Down the Middle) from her publisher–so exciting!

Seated: Ruth Silnes & Diane Warner; Standing: Bob Davis, Mary Knippel, Valerie Lee, Teresa LeYung Ryan, Margaret Davis
I love to see friends happily published!
This is the writers’ club that launched my career in 1997.
Old and new members have a special place in my heart.





You are such a bodhisattva! You have always been available for help, and now you are finally putting all you know into your new manual for all of us writers who find getting published the worst of the worst! Looking forward to the finished product: Bill Your Name Beat the Game:Be Happily Published.
My ms memoir “Oldham Street” is about to be ready for just what you are writing. Many gratitudes!
