Is it out of line to mention the internet and message board in a memoir or other narrative NF book? What about AW? Has it been brought up in any books? I personally love this community so much because all of you are wonderful writers, and talented with words. To be praised by one of you feels awesome, we're all on our own roads to success with writing careers.
I put it to you, is it wrong to want to mention AW and people you're friends with who make a difference in your life? Is it wrong to put the internet and mention message boards and try to express in words the feeling of belonging? I have a book I am writing about something and I talk about using writing as a coping tool, how it makes me feel good, like eating chocolate good.
But in all seriouness, what do you think? Really? To the excellent mods and admins, if this is in the wrong forum please feel free to move it to the proper forum. I am not expecting to get detailed about my WIP, not until I have the query for it. So this isn't self-promotion, it's a genuine set of questions and I appreciate each and every reply made.
