Back from Writer Conference
I spent one day at the Write to Publish Conference in Wheaton, IL. I wish I had the funds to spend the whole week, but I'm going to have to work on that, because it was a good resource. The previous workshops and conferences I've gone to have focused primarily on craft and haven't had many opportunities to shop manuscripts. The next time I go to WTP, I'm going to have some prepared manuscripts. I did make some good contacts, talked one-on-one with a few editors, and got some feedback on a writing idea I haven't fully developed.
I also got some advice on revising my website, so I'm going to be posting more here and making little changes on the website. I need to get my business cards printed, too. One writer said I should add some of the sites I recommended at the critique groups. So, I'll get working on that.
Good news: I've got some solid writing projects in the works right now. I don't want to talk about them too much, because there are some confidentiality things involved, and they're far from finished. But, there's plenty to keep me busy. That's for sure. And, they pay, so that's always cool!
