Did you see Tuesday’s Cynsations post about the Awesome Austin Writers Workshop?

If not, check it out as well as posts by Greg Leitich Smith, Liz Garton Scanlon, P. J. Hoover, Jo Whittemore, and–these just in–Alison Dellenbaugh, Alison’s part two (AKA Coming Back to Earth), April Lurie, Shana Burg, Carmen Oliver, Chris Barton, Jennifer Ziegler, and Jennifer’s part two (AKA Additional AAWW-tobiography)!

Here’s a sneak peek from Jenny: “Together our group could take over the world! (But not to worry. We’d rather just write about it.).”

Just to recap, the participants were: Brian Anderson, Varsha Bajaj, Chris Barton, Gene Brenek, Shana Burg, Anne Bustard, Tim Crow, Betty X. Davis, Meredith Davis, Alison Dellenbaugh, Erin Edwards, Debbie Gonzales, Helen Hemphill, P.J. Hoover, Varian Johnson, Julie Lake, Lindsey Lane, April Lurie, Mark Mitchell, Jane Peddicord, Liz Garton Scanlon, Greg Leitich Smith, Jo Whittemore, Phil Yates, and Jennifer Ziegler.
