Writing historical fiction: sometime journal of a New York City novelist

the joys of writer friends!!

May 18, 2010

I had a lovely dinner at a local French restaurant with my historical novelist friend Susanne Dunlap and then a few days ago had dinner with writer Pam Leggett and Madeleine L'Engle's granddaughter Lena Roy who has her first book coming out. I don't know what I would do without all my writer friends, online and in person. Judy Lindbergh, C.W. Gortner, Katherine Kirkpatrick and so many others keep my high artistic temperament somewhat balanced! Laurel Corona is off to Egypt. I am so rich in gifted friends and I have just named a few! I feel very fortunate.
