We know, we didn't give you any warning. The truth is, we, ourselves, didn't realize that we were going to shut down Running With Quills until a couple of days ago. It was one of those sudden, intuitive group decisions and once it had been made we knew we wanted to do it fast, make it clean and move on.
RWQ has been a wonderful adventure for all of us. You -- the fabulous readers who dropped in to visit and chat -- are the reason this blog worked so well for so long. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your warmth and friendship. But as we all know, if there's one thing that's certain about the online world, it is that the only constant is change. Below you'll read some farewell sentiments from each of us and find links to our other online homes.
We wish you all the best of the holiday season and the New Year. And we hope you will visit us elsewhere in Cyberland.
Sincerely,
Jayne, Stella, Elizabeth, Kate, Lori, Carla and Susan

To every reader who ever visited us here at Quills, I hope you got at least half as much enjoyment from our blogs as I got from your responses.
A writer without readers would be a terrible thing. I don't want to lose touch with you, so please visit me at some of my other social medias!

It's been such a fun run with the Quillsters. I was leery of blogging when Elizabeth Lowell invited me to join RWQ and at first declined the offer. Then I thought, Are you crazy, girl? Pass up the opportunity to hang out with Elizabeth and Jayne and Stella and Lori and (at that time) Suzanne? So I gave it a pop and discovered a whole new world of online friends.
I've loved getting to know those of you who posted. And I hope you'll join me on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/pages/Susan-Andersen/143285819043638 or stop by and browse through my webpage at www.susanandersen.com.
Thank you one and all—you've made the past few years incredibly pleasurable!

I've really enjoyed being a part of the Running With Quills community—when Jayne invited me to join in January 2009, I was totally blown away by the chance to hang out with all those fantastic authors whose books fill my keeper shelves. (Sort of a book addict's dream) It's been fun, getting to know my fellow Quills and discovering what terrific ladies exist behind the “author persona,” (They're not nearly as scary as I thought they were...well, not ALL the time, anyway...) and I've also loved getting the chance to meet the rest of Quillsville—you know who you are! The ones who come back week after week to see what kind of trouble we're getting into.
But just as blogs once burst onto the cyber-stage, we're seeing new social networking venues taking their place. As writers, we can only stretch ourselves just so far from our primary goal, which is bringing our stories to life, and after much soul-searching, we all realized that it's time for the blog to end.
Thank you all for your friendship and your fun and fascinating questions, and I do hope you'll come and chat at some of my other ports of call:

I have thoroughly enjoyed my time here at RWQ. The opportunity to hang out with some of my sister writers was great but the truth is it is those of you who came here to visit who made this blog into a true online community. As book people we all – authors and readers -- share a very special kind of bond. I hope you will join me elsewhere on the net:
