Hi there fellow writers,
I'm new to the Absolute Write community and a new writer. I graduated this past August with my Masters in Creative Writing and have written a screenplay! I am currently working on my first novel, In Due Time, and I am researching and planning my path to self-publishing when complete. I would love to connect with others starting out and also those who have experience to share!

Thank you!

Hi and welcome.
It's a good site to loiter when you need time out from writing the next best seller.
Best of luck.
