Amid all the hustle of the writing life,
it was nice to spend two days at the Northern Colorado Writers Conference in
Fort Collins this last Friday and Saturday. I conducted two workshops titled, “Rejection
Is Not a Four Letter Word,” and “The Art of Balancing Writing and a Full Time
Job.” When not teaching, I attended as many other workshops as possible, and as
I’ve always found at writers conferences, I came up with new ideas as well as
additions to my to-do list. I also enjoyed seeing writing friends and making
new ones. I’m very loyal to writers conference since I sold my first published
novel through a pitch session to Deni Dietz of Five Star at the Rocky Mountain
Fiction Writers Conference in 2005.
In our world of negativity, Mary Roberts
put up a board where attendees could write something positive. Here’s a
picture:
Pass it along. Everyone think of
something good.
