Writerly Wednesday ~~ Check out this GREAT conference!



Hello writer friends. I'm a day late posting, so let's just pretend today is Wednesday, k? But the good news about my tardiness is that I've been doing some interview work, and you'll soon see some great posts because of it!

You've "heard" me speak of friend Deborah Leblanc before. She's got some awesome books out if you love the paranormal, suspense, spooky genre. And they're all set in our beloved state of Louisiana. Yay. Anywho, this awesome woman has put together her second Pen to Press writers' conference coming up NEXT MONTH. There are NYT best selling authors, top agents and editors, and teachers extraordinaire on hand to guide aspiring authors. I can't tell you how much I got from attending P-2-P #1. Click on the site and listen to Deb and past attendees tell you what's in store.

You really need to check it out and seriously consider attending. Think about investing in your writing career if your goal is to publish a book. 

Here's the scoopage~~~

Pen to Press Retreats are five intense, hands-on, inspiring days that teach participants how to shape and present a saleable manuscript.

I'm on my way to check it out now. Yesterday, I thought it was Wednesday all day, so maybe there's something in the spring air throwing us off? Good to see you're posting again!
