[close] Are you an author who wants to create credible, compelling characters? I will be holding an author chat March 4-8, 2013 inspired by my new book "The Art of Character." Even if you haven't read the book, please join the conversation. We'll talk about common questions authors face when developing characters for novels, screenplays and TV scripts, as well as any other writerly challenges. Also, please visit my website www.davidcorbett.com to read excerpts from "The Art of Character." Thanks and I hope to see you back here March 4!

[close] A group for people who want to read and discuss the Harvard Classics together. From Wikipedia: "The Harvard Classics, originally known as Dr. Eliot's Five Foot Shelf, is a 51-volume anthology of classic works from world literature, compiled and edited by Harvard University president Charles W. Eliot and first published in 1909. Eliot had stated in speeches that the elements of a liberal education could be obtained by spending 15 minutes a day reading from a collection of books that could fit on a five-foot shelf. (Originally he had said a three-foot shelf.) The publisher P. F. Collier and Son saw an opportunity and challenged Eliot to make good on this statement by selecting an appropriate collection of works, and the Harvard Classics was the result."
