Attention Central Florida Fiction Writers
D.M. Rosner is looking for a few good Florida Ferrets. Since moving to Florida, Ms. Rosner has formed a local chapter of The 6' Ferret Writers' Group, and there is still room for one or two more dedicated authors.

Applicants must be experienced fiction writers, serious about their craft and committed to attending meetings in the Ocoee, Florida area Wednesday evenings every other week. Please review our Critique Guidelines and By-Laws to get an idea of what to expect from a Ferret meeting.

If you think you'd make a good Ferret, please send a writing sample (up to 10 pages) in the body of an e-mail to webmaster@6ftferrets.com, along with your name and contact information.
