I am one of those people who would say I love to write but, I'm not really a writer. WDC taught me to stop saying that. I write. So I am a writer. I am a dyslexic writer who found a place where it is rare for people to make me feel horrible because my spelling and punctuation might not be perfect. Instead, they offer helpful tips so that I can fix the areas I have issues with and do it with a gentle smile and a kind heart. You have to love people like that. I know I do. The fact they overlooked it to make me a mod and let me do this newsletter... Well that's a priceless Master Card just can't understand.
To those who are so new you may not have had time to figure it out yet or those who have been here a while and are still trying to get your feet under you, you may be wondering how in the world does one really fit in in such a huge place. Reviews is always my answer. Doing reviews is the soul of WDC, but we aren't going to talk about that today. Today we are going to talk about it's heart. The very heart of WDC is of course our brilliant The ScaryMaster and The StoryWitchress who are like the very young and very unique urban hippy parents (yes that is suppose to be a complement) to a multitude of writer children but surrounding the inner heart is the outer one, our groups.
If you have yet to join one you really need to look into them and consider it. We have so many different ones from writing groups, to poetry groups, to reviewing groups. Leading the charge:
- They have an abundance of things to review and are one of the oldest if not the oldest group on WDC. They love a good newbie.

Ms. Pat and the Chickadees are always looking for good reviewers to help out. It would seem they never run out of items in the garden looking to be watered by the reviews of their members.
- not only do they do some great reviewing but they offer a lot of help for newbies including writing courses or at least they did before I had to change my handle to: still trying to get internet.
GROUP
The WDC Angel Army (ASR) Dedicated to promoting positivity, encouragement, and support to the WDC community. #1188309 by iKïyå§ama
The angel army was one of the first groups I joined. Though no longer a member due to just being overwhelmed by too much to do, The angel army is an amazing place to start if your looking to feel at home.
- Though set up to help people meet their goals during Nanowrimo, This group does a great job of helping keep people focused on their writing goals all year long.
- this is one of my favoirte groups because we get to pay it back by helping out people who can't afford their upgrade. They are also a great group to review for. It's all about paying it forward.
- This is a new group to me but it looks interesting.

- I am not familiar with this group either but any group willing to help with upgrades is a group I feel I should promote.
As you can see, the heart of WDC is alive and well and full of abundance that you can join in on. We hope to see you join one or twenty, which ever works for you. I think I'm currently at 24. I would have never made it here without the WDC Groups. Hurry and join before you miss out on something.
Just a few of our newbies
