We seem to be well on our way to April. Has spring sprung in your neck of the woods? Are the bees buzzing, the birds chirping, and the flowers growing up? Well I want everyone to take note that we are only about 5 weeks from April 1st. So to get everyone  having some fun this year, as last year I think most of us were shell shocked, let's plan a really good April Fools Joke for this year. If you have a good idea share it with everyone so if anyone is drawing blank, they can maybe borrow the idea  Unless you are married in the same house 

Let's skip right to the recap and see what all happened this week at the GA News Blog.

Cia was here on Monday with the March CSR Story and Author. I have to admit, both the title and author's name should catch everyone's attention. 

Wednesday was a return to the ever popular feature among members, Ask An Author 3.0. Make sure you help @astone2292 by submitting some of your favourite stories and 3 thought provoking questions to the Author. 

Thursday, Renee was back and reminding every single one of you that the upcoming Anthology is just around the corner  Now looking back at my initial preamble, lets not do any April Fools jokes of not submitting your Anthology by April 1  Also check out the past Anthology entry featured as well.

That brought us to our prompt guru comicfan with another couple of great prompts to get yourself putting pen to paper  

Finally on Saturday, Comicality was by with some great advice for not only new, but some established authors *cough* @C James *cough* on how to use, or not to use every reader's favourite writing tool, cliffhangers  

Once again, I hope everyone got a chance to look at Myr's 7 Words of the Day 

Retrospective, Stratagem, Tenacious, Flagrant, Baleful, Venerable Tergiversation

Last but not to be forgotten, our weekly check in on our story goals.
