Hello.
Hi, Tom. This is Diana from the creative writing class.
Oh, hi, Diana. What's up?
Well, I have a new project which I thought you might be interested in. I'm setting up a writer's group, you know, a support group for people who are trying to get published.
Well, how would it work?
We get together once a week. I've already arranged for a meeting room in the library, and then we share what we were working on and offer each other some advice.
I could use some advice. I'm working on a short story that I'd like to get published in the Campus Literature Review. You've done that, haven't you? Didn't I see a poem of yours in the last issue?
Yes, I was so excited to finally see my work in print. It was presented three times. You just have to keep trying if they turn you down.
Well, I'm sure the group could help me, but I don't know how much I can contribute. I'm just starting out.
That's OK. I know from your comments in class that you will be a valuable member. We will get someone more experienced to help us, too.
