On Monday, September 25th, I will be this month’s guest at Pennwriters Presents, an online Q&A session provided by the Pennwriters writing organization through its Facebook group.
Pennwriters Presents offers access to industry professionals, who answer questions on a variety of topics. Here is the official blurb about the upcoming September session:
Pennwriters Presents proudly hosts guest Ramona DeFelice Long, an award-winning professional skilled in multiple areas of writing and editing. Ramona will take your questions from 9:00 a.m. to 12 noon, and again from 4:00-7:00 p.m. on any of these topics: working with an editor, self-editing, mysteries, short stories, women’s fiction, and writing retreats.
Post your question for Ramona on the Pennwriters Presents Facebook page on the 25th and she will post her reply. Please join us! The Pennwriters Presents Facebook page is open to all current Pennwriters members.

I have been a proud member of Pennwriters since I joined the Indiana Women’s Writers Circle in Indiana, PA, back in the 1990s.
