Time to Slow Down

Indie Scriptorium has been presenting blogs every week since June 2022.

Writing posts was a fabulous way for us to explore the art of writing, editing and the entire business of self-publishing. When you consider that our three members have published over 150 posts in three years it’s an impressive body of work.

We have gained nearly a hundred followers from across the world. We have used the blogs to educate ourselves and others. We’ve produced an anthology of blogs on writing and plan another one next year on editing.

Researching and writing blogs requires time and effort. We are all active writers engaged in producing our own non-fiction books, novels and short stories and we are increasingly time poor. There is also a wealth of writing resources on-line, which we frequently cite in our blogs and this sometimes means we are “reinventing the wheel.”

So, it’s time to review the purpose of our group and website and we have decided to slow down a bit.

Rest assured readers, Indie Scriptorium will continue. The large body of work will remain available on our website. We will continue to post blogs as we research and explore new areas of interest, but it won’t be as regular as in the past.

Our website will be revamped and maintained to market our work. We plan to alert you to new publications, events and other interesting issues as they arise. If any of you want to see more regular posts, we would welcome your contributions.

Cheers and Happy Writing
