About
I've been trying to be a journalist for a while but it's only recently that I've come to realise I'm in this for creative writing and not critical. I've got about 5 idea's for novels and 5 for sitcom's. I'm hoping to meet groups of writers in London to share idea's with and improve my writing skills. Oh yeah, does anybody know how the hell you carry on writing after the 1st chapter?!! It seems I get distracted by either a new idea or something shiny very quickly. All the best, Drew.

by Amarantha 1 year agoA belated Hello Drew,
I became aware if your existence on Cloud only when you popped up in my notifications as a joining member of "Double duo do der writing stuff"
Evidently, as an established member of Cloud with many friends already, Norm's Group was an afterthought for you but sadly, the Group no longer exists. Our Norm buggered off and is still the subject of an APB. We still do miss him greatly.
Best wishes for all your writerly efforts. -
by Joey 1 year agoA belated welcome to the Cloud - watch out for Gremlins - and hi.
About the agent thing, you're answer- with great difficulty. You find list of agents and you email them your submission and hope they accept. You'll probably email lots of them -
by norman normington 1 year agoHi drew, the clouds is rubbish especially that Mcallan bloke and that Norman idiot..... -
by Kiki 1 year agoYou will certainly get that and also there is a professional service available through Writers' Workshop. I'm currently teaching myself how to write scripts at the moment so I know what you are going through! If I can be of any assistance let me know :) -
by maryluv 1 year agoHi Drew, welcome to WC. What do you need help with? The tabs along the top are worth exploring - they will lead you pretty much everywhere worth going! Also try clicking on the pics in the groups section on the home-page.
