My first Street Stories novel, Painted Black, owes much of its success to a wonderful writers group I had at the time in Illinois.  Bend Me, Shape Me also has a writer’s group to think for all their help, the Seattle Fiction Writers.

Here is a photo we took after a meeting we had recently.  All the key players are there save an important guy named Robert Lint, plus we had a writer-in-training in attendance, Adaa, the beautiful daughter of Rahul Pratap and his wife Chandana.

Thanks to each of you for all your help!
