Valerie Dean Belew

I have recently completed and copyrighted my first novel, presently unpublished. I discovered writing groups about two months ago, and became hopelessly addicted, and not looking for a cure. I attended my first writer's conference last weekend in Indian Springs, and fell in love with Rosemary Daniels, Anne Jones, among others. My goal is to publish, but if that doesn't happen, I've experienced a rebirth just through becoming involved with so many other writers. I am hooked, and not in denial about it. I am not actually a lesbian, but since I am presently in the process of writing a novel titled Coming Out, that deals with some gay/lesbian characters, I included gay/lesbian as one of my genres, and would welcome feedback as I write my second novel, which is going to be as passion filled, and good as my first.
