Dave NEVER shuts email lists down! There are some been  dead for years they still just sitting there so since it's still here why not use it. I know that it is more than one's life is worth to be critical ofthe Great and Mighty NFB but I must say  seems more than a little arbitrary to me. We can start OUR OWN writers Group. Watchall think about them iphones? Jack Braillecat

I also never received the email and I'm sorry to hear it shut down. This list was very helpful in 2011 when I first started writing. I appreciate the contributions from everyone and found the prompts (around 2011-17) to be very helpful with people giving each other muual feedback about their writing. Also the youth writers' workshops before that.

Hm. I am surprised this email list is still up. I made the assumption it was shut down a few months ago after Shelly made the announcement.

If anyone wants to keep in touch with me, my email is anniecms64 at gmail.com <mailto:anniecms64 at gmail.com> .

Also, Behind Our Eyes www.behindoureyes.org <http://www.behindoureyes.org>  is a thriving writing group. Membership is free and we have so much to share and activities to share. It is an independent 501 C3.

I had no idea that the writers division was dissolved. Can you share what led to this and what could be done to resurrect it?

 

Best,

Kevin
