Edie Goodwin (Council Bluffs, IA) is a pediatric physical therapist at Loess Hills Area Education Agency in Council Bluffs, IA. She is a lover of people, has 2 children, 11 step-children, and 30+ grandkids. She believes in giving children the foundation they need to help them become successful adults. She dabbles in writing, piano-playing for musicals, and dreams of being a New York City Rockette. Of course, she’s not 5′ 7″ and can’t dance, but one can always dream! One of her greatest joys is teaching Creighton University PT students, who she hopes to steer into a pediatric PT career, so she can one day retire and just dance!. She has a wonderful husband, Bob, who lives with her long work hours and supports her outlandish dreams. She considers herself one very fortunate woman!
In 1991, Fine Lines began to provide a place where creative writers could share their written ideas with others. What started out as a classroom project at one school in the USA is now a fifty-state writing network of authors who love the written word, and they now have the support of a 501 (c) 3 nonprofit organization. We have published writing from more than twenty different countries. This international, quarterly journal is dedicated to the writing development of all its members. Join now!

Creative Writing Summer Campers
“Writing to some people is a joke. To me, it is my life. I have never
been in a place where I have felt so welcome, because of my talent.”
Ellen Garfoot
“I plan to keep on writing, because now, the words just flow in my
head. Before this camp, that did not happen. I think this experience
made me a better writer.” Mandie Livermore
“I enjoyed all the speakers, but I enjoyed most the two boys who played
a guitar and the piano. Their songs sounded like good poems put to
music.” Catie Doran
“This camp was the best experience I have had in a long time, because
not only did I enjoy it, but I could share my writing gift with others.”
Andrea Dai
“I was surprised how many jobs are connected to good writing techniques.”
Taylor Sutherland
