Writer's Workshops

Go to Writer's Workshops every opportunity you can.

If you want to be a writer and even if you already are there is so much to learn.  I had my first opportunity to go to the Pacific Northwest Writer's Association Member's Meeting last night.  I was so glad I found a way to go.  There was a workshop about Hooks and how to write a synopsis.  I learned so much.  Most of all I gained great insight into my current novels.  I came home and as soon as opportunity allowed, I started applying those changes to my novel and to my thought process.  Already my story has improved and I know that my next novel will be better the first time through now that I have learned how best to hook my readers.  There is so much more to a hook than you could ever imagine!

I plan to go to more workshops by this group as well as to send my husband to some.  It would be ridiculous not to get to as many as we can while we live only twenty minutes away from Issaquah, WA where PNWA hold their workshops.   I need to find some writer's workshops for 8 to 10 year olds too.  My children aspire to be writers because of the example my husband and I have given them.  In reaching for our own dreams we have inspired our children.  In that there is more reward than in anything else.

So... Go to Writer's Workshops and make your story even better than it was before!
