Ladies, support your peers' endeavors

I wrote this letter to More.com after reading an article in More Magazine: “Is There Still Such a Thing as Women’s Issues?” The article had a political slant, but my response could apply to our need to support other women writers so we can all find success. Follow one another’s platforms, share posts, buy books, recommend books and authors to friends. Suggest good editors and agents and publishers. Don’t tear each other down based on jealousy or envy. Writing is a lonely business—we all can use the support of other writers as we make this long journey from written word to publication.
