Eleven Years of showcasing others, plus she's so talented, 22 Apr 2008

Margie Culbertson has been writing under a pseudonym since the early 80s in about 5 genres, but neither this website (started in 1999!), nor her humor writing group (The Writers With Humor Group) is about her. This is all, obviously, about others. She does show us a few tidbits of her work, yes. And do go out of your way to read them! They are varied and great. But mostly she showcases the work of others. There are more than 130 writers, SO FAR as of 2008 (so if you are reading this in 2009 or later, list has grown)--on this site including Humor Contest Winners and Guest Authors. This contest is still free, and it's almost the only FREE humor writing contest on the web. She single-handedly raises the hopes of newbies and also places ful-timers on her site. Google her site and you will find it comes up big-time under "Humor Writing Contests." She also started her "Writers With Humor" Discussion Group at the same time with onlt 8 members back in 1997. This, from a one-woman show. Hear hear for Margie Culbertson, a woman who did all of as a giveback to the humor writing community after she had MADE IT in the industry.
