Mischief!
Available September, 2021
Mischief! Such a mischievous topic, isn’t it? Merriam Webster’s Online Dictionary defines Mischief as: 1. a specific injury or damage attributed to a particular agent; 2. a cause or source of harm, evil, or irritation; 3. (an) action that annoys or irritates; or 4. the quality or state of being mischievous.
BREAKING NEWS! The eBook and the paperback have been submitted for publication. You can now purchase the eBook on Amazon, here. The paperback soon will be available on Amazon.
Of course, those who entered will receive a paperback copy at no charge. There will also be copies available for sale.
There are many of us who experience writer’s block on occasion. So, what to do? Keep writing. It’s that simple. Write about everything you see and give it your own personal flair. Most importantly, don’t doubt yourself. The worst enemy to creativity is self-doubt!

A Word From Our President
Joanne Fisher
Welcome to the new and improved website for the Space Coast Writers’ Guild! The website we’ve had for a couple years has served us very well. But it had its limitations, and we were bumping up against those limitations. Primarily, our webmaster and Vice President Dan Fisher ran out of space to put our authors on that page. So, he has spent the past couple months working with Robin McDonald of MacRed Designs redesigning and rebuilding the website from the ground up.
Some folks say, “Well, it should only take an hour or so to build a website.” That may be true, but if this was to be done right it needed to be planned out, piece by piece, as one would plan out and design a house.
Please take your time to peruse the website. If you haven’t yet, please send your author information to Dan at the link below. He will need a good quality headshot photo (with light colored background), a listing of your latest book, or your last few books, and a short bio. It should be about the size of a Tweet.
Sincerely,
Joanne Fisher
President, Space Coast Writers’ Guild
