I first came across the term “picaresque” when I was about 13 and assigned “Catcher In the Rye” to read for school.
It meant, I learned, a story about a journey: literal or figurative, or ideally both.
Today I’m traveling to New York for Book Expo America 2012 and while I’m taking a literal journey, your assignment is to
Write A Story In Which Your Hero Takes A Literal And Figurative Journey
Go!
A supportive group of committed writers, who meet virtually, support each other’s efforts, and
become better writers today, not ‘some day’.
The only qualification to be a ‘Superstar” is a desire to write and support your fellow writers.
