It testifies to the conscientious and dedicated work, not to speak of the imagination and crafting skill\u2014and the immensely valuable collegial critiquing\u2014of the writers and poets in the group. As for the latter capacity, our members one and all have truly internalized the \u201cbest practices\u201d of excellent writing, such as revising pieces several times, eschewing the presentation of opinions as facts, and refraining from the censorship of unpopular thoughts and expressions. Writers do need encouragement; and, to this end, I proudly assert, while maintaining genuine humility, that our Kings Point Creative Writers Club (KPCWC) anthologies are putting our writing group \u201con the map\u201d in Delray Beach and Palm Beach County, Florida, and even beyond. The literary quality of the pieces in the anthology is striking, and I go so far as to describe the variety of treatments and the range of subjects as \u201cbreathtaking.\u201d<\/h5>\n<p><a class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/authorwebservices-vip.net\/US\/812659\/excerpt\/\">READ AN EXCERPT<\/a> <a class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.xlibris.com\/en\/bookstore\/bookdetails\/812659-the-view-from-kings-point\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ORDER A COPY NOW<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5><strong>Edward&#8217;s Xlibris Best<\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5>This book features 58 of Edward Levenson\u2019s favorite pieces from among his seven previous Xlibris books.
