The Scribe October 2016

About this ebook
For more than a decade, The Scribe has been the mainstay for communicating with members of the St. Louis Writers Guild. It began as a way to showcase the organization and share insights into the publishing world. Back issues give a wonderful record of the Guild.
The Scribe is now available to everyone, not just members. It features stories, poems, and essays from our members, as well as information about our events, most of which are open to the public.
The October 2016 edition features a word from our guild president, coverage of the St. Louis Writers Guild at Penned Con by Brad R. Cook, an article on National Novel Writing Month by Linda Austin, and a short story by Larry Lovan.
