Writing Forums
I am beginning to feel like I pose too many writing-type questions here and am wondering if any writers can recommend a decent forum more focused on writing. I love this forum, but don't want to take anything away from the reading of historical fiction which is what this forum is meant to be about.

I don't hate AW, Rowan. Like on any large forum, there will be people you like and people you don't. I've made some good friends there. I never used it for writing advice, but their info on agents and submitting is quite useful.
When I first started writing, I spent a lot of time on the Compuserve Books and Writers Community. Unfortunately, I haven't been back for a long time, since I had trouble logging in from the browser I used. Diana Gabaldon hangs there and is very patient and generous towards new writers. There's a Writers Workshop forum where members work on exercises and post them for critique. It was a great place to frequent as a beginning writer. I'll have to go back and see who's still around (I was active there about 6-7 years ago).
