July Update

* Work is progressing on the O.C. Writers anthology. The call for stories between 2,500 and 4,500 words with an Orange County connection went out a few months ago, and the writers who answered that call are doing their final edits. When the stories are finished and submitted to anthology coordinator Jen Levine, the next phase of editing will begin.

*  We're still looking for O.C. Writer members interested in contributing to a group blog.

* The Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/groups/OCWriters/) continues to be our primary means of communication, but member Nyx Goldstone has launched an ancillary group at http://www.meetup.com/OC-Writers to help track the weekly write-ins and crit group meetings.

* Member Wendy Van Camp has started offering a Flash Fiction Friday prompt for anyone wishing to participate. She has also set up an OC Writers Flash Fiction Group at
http://www.writing.com/main/handler/item_id/1940220-OC-Writers-Flash-Fiction-Group where the flash fiction can be posted and critiqued. (To use the group you will need a free account on writing.com. After starting your account, ask to join the group).

If I've missed anything, feel free to post it in the comments section.

Thanks, and happy writing!
