Wet Noodle Posse
The Wet Noodle Posse is about women connecting and sharing, offering
support, encouragement, information, a recommendation-or just a good belly
laugh.
In 2003, a group of about sixty women met each other online for the first
time. They were finalists for the Romance Writers of America's Golden Heart
award - the top measure of achievement for unpublished writers in the
industry. Like finalists before them, they formed an Internet loop to
discuss the upcoming awards ceremony at the national convention, held that
year in New York.
Most of these online loops dissolve shortly after the convention, but
something happened on the way to the Big Apple. This particular group found
they had a level of camaraderie unknown to them before, and they stayed
together. They even named themselves. When one member expressed doubt about
her worth and talent, another threatened to cover thrash her with a wet
noodle for doubting herself.
In the last nine years "Noodlers" have continued writing. These featured books
are only a few of the countless books, novellas and short stories produced by
this special group of writers.
