Field Trip Anyone?
Ever had a subject you wish you could get more hands-on information when the Internet wasn’t enough? Well…you’re in luck! Christy of the Gainesville Fiction Writers group is creating a field trip/research group for writers looking to get detailed info on a particular subject.
Take a tour of a stable and get a crash-course in horseback riding, speak to a lawyer or law enforcement officer about changing an identity, or simply get a “behind the scenes” view of a restaurant kitchen. These are just a few samples but if this seems like an idea that’s right up your alley, stay tuned for more detailed info.
