Writers Workshop 2/16
      Hi Everybody!
My next Writers Workshop at the Oswego Public Library is this Thursday, February 16th, at & PM, I hope you can all join us! I'll be talking about the voice in writing, as well as hearing the participants work! More information is available at the Oswego Public Library http://www.oswego.lib.il.us
If you would like to read my novel The Last Stage it's serialized here http://thelaststageserial.blogspot.co... and the first 17 chapters are up!
Writers tip of the week:
Write what you want to read. Don't try to figure out what the newest trends are or what the next trend may be, you'll find yourself missing the trend or swallowed up in "genre" fiction.
Have a great week everybody!

Rants Raves, Rock n Roll & Review!
      Good Morning Everyone!
Just a quick reminder, I'll be on the Rants, Raves and Rock 'n' Roll Show today at 6:30 PM central time, the show runs between 4-7 PM central time. I'll be talking about the "Rock 'n' Roll Presidency." http://www.blogtalkradio.com/big-blen...
Ken Korczak on his book review blog, Best eBook Reviews has reviewed "The Last Stage" and gave it 5 stars! Thank you Ken! http://bestebookreviews.blogspot.com/...
Writers tip of the day:
If you're stuck on a section of what you're writing don't sit there and try to force it, do something else, take a walk, go shopping, read a book, get your mind off the problem and, let your subconscious do the work for you and the answer will come to you. I've done some of my best writing driving or taking a shower!
Have a great day!

1st Writers Workshop/The Last Stage Serial
      Hello Jymsbooks Newsletter Members!
With the start of the writers workshop we have quite a few new members so welcome! I hope you enjoy and find helpful what I have to offer!
Starting with the writers workshop, it went great! Twelve writers attended of various interests and discipline's, everything from people interested in blogging to how to work through some of their writers block,to writers who are looking for some feedback to their work. Everybody in the group seems really enthusiastic about their writing so I'm looking forward to the next workshop on Feb 16th at 7PM!
I have brought back The Last Stage serialization on a blog, so if you've been wanting to read The Last Stage you can start at: http://thelaststageserial.blogspot.co...
At the end of the writers workshop it was suggested that I add writing tips to each newsletter. It was such a simple idea I don't know why I didn't think of it, so here we go the first writers tip.
Jymsbooks Writers Tip:
Poetry is the painting of literature use your words thickly, like paint upon the canvas.
Circle Feb 1 on your calendar for my next article and apperance on Rants, Raves and Rock 'n' Roll! (more info as we get closer to the date).
Thank you all again for being a part of Jymsbooks! I hope you'll forward the newsletter on to friends, family and associates who may be interested!

Oswego Library Writers Workshop
      Hello All!
Welcome to new Jymsbooks subscribers! Thank you and I hope you enjoy everything that comes up during the year!
We're starting off the year right with my moderating the Oswego Public Libraries Writers Workshop starting this Thursday Januar 19th at 7 PM at the Montgomery campus. If you live close by and want to join the group feel free to stop or you can register at: http://www.oswego.lib.il.us/evanced/l...
The Oswego Library has also purchased two copies of The Last Stage for their collection so they should be able to check out as soon as they go through the libraries processing (hopefully a day or two).
The Jymsbooks website has been updated! It now has links for easier connections to The Doors Examiner and my articles at the Rants, Raves, and Rock 'n' Roll magazine! & it is also now easier to purchase a signed copy of The Last Stage through the website from Paypal! So, get a signed copy today if you don't already have one!
My next Rants, Raves and Rock 'n' Roll article and radio show will be on Feb 1st, stay tuned for details as they come in!
I think that's all the jym news fit to print for this week!
Don't forget to forward this email to friends and family who may be interested!
