LITPARK is a literary playground for writers founded by author Susan Henderson. A place to laugh, vent, support, inspire, and share helpful tips about the business. Every first Monday will feature a Question of the Month (involving everything from obsessions to rejection letters), and readers are encouraged to answer the question on the comment boards and become a part of the LitPark community. Otherwise please feel free to lurk and read the array of enlightening interviews with literary agents, publicists, editors, artists, musicians, journalists, and writers such as Neil Gaiman, Susan Straight, Daniel Handler, and Barry Eisler. Thanks for reading!
