New Writing Workshop Site

Just wanted to post something brief about a new workshopping site I'm participating in, Book Country. I got started in the whole online writer community thing through NaNoWriMo and Authonomy. Authonomy has changed a lot since I originally signed up, and I'm no longer active on the site, so I was looking for somewhere new to hang out. Book Country has become that place.

I was lucky to get in as a private beta member, so I've been using the site since the middle of March (they just opened up for public beta this week). I've met some great people so far. There's no race for the desk like there was on Authonomy, so as of right now, I haven't really seen any politics or shady activity going on (which is a really nice change). For those of you who follow the publishing industry, you'll probably recognize the two people who are basically in charge of the site: Colleen Lindsay and Danielle Poiesz. They're both very active, posting their own work and writing reviews for work there, and participating in discussions.

If you're looking for someplace to workshop your writing, I'd recommend you try out Book Country. One note: it's only open to genre writers: fantasy, science fiction, horror (which is classed under fantasy), romance, mystery, and thriller, to be exact. If you do join, make sure to send me a connection request (I'm cameronchapman there).
