Sorry for the spam from the new member "Mercedes Hopkins." (Some of you may have no idea what even happened because she's gone, and so are her comments. So, if you see that she left a comment on your page but it's gone, that's why.) I just banned...

Hi there, You did a great job organizing this site! Any plans for a meetup any time soon? I'm new to town and would love to meet others who write for a living.

I'm a fan of B&N at First Colony Mall, too. Brasil on Westheimer and Dunlavy is nice, too. I also heard positive things about a place near there called "Avant Garden." Haven't checked it out, though, but that area has all sorts of neat coffeeshop-...

Hi there Julia,

Thanks so much. I would absolutely love to attend a writer's group meeting. Please keep me posted. Your site is great. I would suggest that you post " monthly features" on some of the writers from your site along with a sample of their work.This will further promote HW& E.Also,congratulations on your children's book.

Hello Julia,
I just joined as a member and find this site to be very enjoyable and easy to navigate. I'm in desperate need of an editor to polish my novel for my agent. However, due to the loss of my husband here recently, i'm not in a great finacial situation. What would you consider a fair price of a horror novel of approx. 58,000 word count? Thanks for your time and look forward to talking with you soon. Steph

Hey there!
I just moved here in June, from Summerville SC (slightly north of Charleston).

I'd love to hook up with some other writers - I've always gone it alone or with cyber-friends only, but I think knowing some IRL would help kick me in the behind a little bit to finish the spec works!

About Julia

Julia Temlyn is the owner of Temlyn Writing: freelance writing & editing services, where she works diligently with clients to rescue excess apostrophes, save spliced commas, and repair injured & abused words. She also offers online community managing, moderating, & building services.

Additionally, she is the editor of Musical Reviewer and Writers Remember, and administrator of the Houston Writers & Editors Network.

She is also the columnist for the Houston Theatre Examiner.

The highlight of her career thus far? Being interviewed on NPR’s (National Public Radio) The Bryant Park Project as a guest grammarian.

Julia has always been passionate about the written word, and has literally been writing and editing since she could read –- long before she received her B.A. in English -- but she didn’t consider it for a career until she fell in love with the English department after trying out two other majors first (vocal music and communications). She journeyed through college both reading and writing about some of the best literature ever written, and getting graded for it — a dream come true!

All the while she moderated an IRC chatroom where she met the man who would later become her husband. Four years and a bachelor’s degree later she graduated and got married, began freelancing as a writer, editor, and moderator not long after, and has been doing it ever since!

A native of New York and Central Florida, Julia currently resides outside SW Houston, Texas, with her incredible husband and their two goofy cats. Her hobbies include singing, seeing Broadway musicals, reading, geocaching, scrapbooking, drinking tea, watching movies, and spending time with her husband and family & friends.
