Last Day for the MAKE PUBLISHING FUN Summit + Other Fun Things!
|
|
|
How are you? I'm in the homestretch of writing this novel. This phase always seems to drag on -- writing toward the climax and then the wrap up.
Nevertheless, if there's one thing I know to be true in all my years of writing novels is that all I need to do is show up daily, put in the words to the best of my ability, and I will complete this first draft.
Now, editing this book and the three that proceed it in this science fiction mystery series, that's another matter altogether. I'll worry (and fret and brainstorm and wonder) later. :)
Hit reply and let me know what you're up to! I'd love to hear.
A few fun things -- four items to be precise.
♥
2 Online Summits for Writers
Note: I am an affiliate for this summit and it does turn into a paid event on June 1st.
Both of these summits have wonderful interviews for some great education!
An Upcoming Book Festival
Next, if you're in the San Francisco Bay Area this weekend, June 3 and 4, check out the Bay Area Book Festival in Downtown Berkeley, right next to BART. Ezra and I will be at the San Francisco Area Romance Writers of America booth on Saturday.
An Upcoming Writers Conference
I'm honored to be one of the many speakers at the 5th Annual Conference on Creative Writing at the University of the Pacific’s main campus, June 23-25, 2017. I'll be speaking on “7 Essentials Keys for Planning Your Novel for Pantsers.”
Happy Writing!
