I Love Spying On Kidlit Critique Groups

I stumble onto them once in a while and it's fun to see what they're up to. The blog Outside of a Dog is said to consist of, "eight writers and illustrators who came together in 2000 as an on-line writing group." One member of this group, Kim Norman, also has a follow up to her Santa Baby parody "A Writer's Wish List". You can find her newest creation "Ode To a Departing Manuscript" on her linked website. Think Broadway meets the painfully exposed undulating heart of every writer I know.
