Hucks Welcomes Writing Blog

New Blog: Launched in September 2010, the Writing North Idaho blog is written by a group of six North Idaho writers made up of authors and freelance writers, including a copywriter and a screenwriter. They include: Nancy Owens Barnes of Priest River, Mary Jane Honegger of Post Falls, Jennifer Lamont Leo of Cocolalla, Jennifer Rova of Hayden, Kathy Cooney Dobbs of Worley, and Elizabeth Brinton of Coeur d'Alene. Oh...and we also have mysterious writer Norm de Ploom who lives somewhere up north and pops in on occasion to give us keen advice on grammar, punctuation and language trends. Our intent with Writing North Idaho is to provide a place for writers of all skill levels in the North Idaho area to connect and share their encouragement, inspiration, and knowledge about the craft of writing, the business of writing and the writing life. We also highlight writing-related events happening in the area. We post three times each week and welcome posts from guest writers/Nancy Owens Barnes, Writing North Idaho. Blog site here.
