[Stylist] Congratulations to Barbara Hammel. Plus information on publication possibility.

[Orly Shamir]

Good morning everybody, I’m fairly new to this group, I’d like to join some of the calls, but my thing is not poetry it’s I’m just starting to write my first ever book a memoir. Is this group specifically only about a specific type of writing?
