Well, the writer's "bootcamp" thing was a bust. it was all about writing self-help books, using said books to pass yourself off as an "expert" so you can get interviews, which leads to speaking fees and endorsements, which is where you make money, and they get their money from you in exchange for publishing your book.

So nothing that would be helpful for me, sadly.

Ah, well. At least I tried ...

Am so sorry, Dorothy

That sucks, Dorothy. Boot camps like this one give the legit ones, a bad name. Hopefully, you have learned something that will benefit you, in the long run. Just think of it, as background reference, for a new story for you to write about.

Perfection is, always, one step beyond, where my feet are.

Yikes!

That is so not what you were expecting. Try and find some writers groups in your area. If you live in a city, there should be a number of them. They will give you a lot more help than any weekend boot camp can possibly do. Good luck.

And yes, you tried. So that is awesome, all on it's own.

Sorry.

Dottie,

I was really hoping this would help you out. Sorry to hear it wasn't what you needed. Big hugs.
