2) Jordan Rosenfeld and I met through friends over lunch in late summer. We both commented afterwards of experiencing one of those wonderful kinship sensations, like we spoke the same language. I read her novelForged in Graceand fell in love with her writing. I wanted to write a plot book on scenes. Jordan wanted to write a scene book on plot. Writer’s Digest just offered us contracts for Deep Scenes!
I dreamed of another plot retreat since my terrific host up and moved to the other side of the country. Jordan and I met up at Mt. Madonna in the Santa Cruz mountains and Deep Plotting Writing Retreat resulted.
Two more double-yolk pairing are meeting, matching up, connecting and joining together…
