Testimonials:

“Joining this group has been, without a doubt, one of the best moves I ever made. It is through this group that I have developed personal relationships, as a result of which, I now have an agent. Not only that, I am amazed by how much I've learned about writing and the publishing industry, in such a short period of time.”
—Jasmin Rosemberg, women's fiction writer

“This list is hot, hot, hot! I think the good karma is catching!”
—Susan McBride, author of The Good Girl’s Guide to Murder

“This the best loop on the web.”—Jina Bacarr, chick lit author

"Reading the stories from everyone on the board about their successes and failures has been such an inspiration to me over the years, and has really helped keep me focused and determined to keep going. This loop is a resource not just for information, but for the sense that we're not just working away on our own for an intangible dream – we're part of a community that really can achieve our goals."
--Abby McDonald, SOPHOMORE SWITCH (YA) – Candlewick/Walker, Spring 2009, THE POPULARITY RULES – Arrow, Summer 2009, THE GOOD GIRL'S GUIDE TO DECEPTION – Arrow, Summer 2010

“I recommend this loop to ALL my friends who are serious about writing. It's the very best I belong to.”
—Natalie R. Collins, author of Wives and Sisters

“This is a such a great list!”
—Julie Kenner, author of The Givenchy Code
