What I’m Reading Now – 5/15/06

Sometimes coincidence seems like fate. My brother-in-law, Michael, and I were brainstorming ways to improve our writing, our level of production and developing the fortitude to submit our writing for publication. I told Michael of an author I admire named Po Bronson, who co-founded a writing group called The Grotto. It was started to get creative people together to work on their own projects yet experience a sense of community with other creative types. So, I suggested we start our own group so that we too can work alone together.

The next day, I received the June edition of Writer’s Digest in the mail. And wouldn’t you know it – Po Bronson is on the cover. In the magazine is an interview with Po Bronson, written by Maria Schneider. The article covers how Po interviewed some 700 people for his latest book Why Do I Love These People? (Random House). The article was good and having enjoyed Po’s past work, I went out and picked up a copy. So far I am thoroughly enjoying it.

Additionally, Mike and I are meeting today to discuss the details of our little writing group idea.
