I would be interested in participating in such a group.
I’m a Clinical Medical Librarian at the Health Sciences Library, and interested in the writer’s group. I can read, comment, and help with research on your writing. I believe other librarians would do likewise. After I finish my second master’s in August 2011, I’ll have time for more writing of my own to share. Looking forward to hearing from you.
I would be interested in participating in a writing group. I’ll be starting the iPhD program in the Fall in ELPF/CIL.
