Welcome...

To the newest member of the team at Strictly Writing.

Debs Riccio, once writer of grown up novels now writes YA in between working, running a home, being a wife and mother, blogging and tweeting. She should fit right in!

Welcome Debs. It's great to have you on board.

Welcome

Welcome to our blog. We are a varied group of writers - published and aspiring; poets, short-story creators and novelists - with one thing in common: an enduring love for the craft of writing. A love which requires great resilience in the face of recurrent self-doubt, writer's block and rejection. In the face of the obsessive checking of emails, inch high dust and burnt dinners. In the face of a gamut of RSI injuries and writer's bottom. But a love that repays itself ten times over with those sparkling seconds of elation when finally, the right prose unfolds, like a quick-footed jive or seamless Cha Cha Cha. That's when we trust once again the voice in our heads that urges... "Keeeeep writing!"
