THE WRAP UP-- THE SOUTHERN PEN WRITER'S CONFERENCE!

My panel/bio in the program book

On Saturday, May 18th, I was a guest at The Southern Pen Writers Conference in Monroe, GA. This was the first year for this event and I think it went amazingly well. Big thanks to Vickie Bley and her team, the authors, the presenters, the volunteers, and the attendees for making this event so special. I hope there will be a second one.

There were two keynote addresses during the event, one from author Ed Grisamore called "The Wonderful Life of a Writer" and the other from author and judge, Lori Duff called "The Legal Side of Writing" which she made quite fun.

There were a total of thirteen workshops/presentations to attend. I taught one at 10:00 am called "You've Written Something. Now

At book signing event

What?" which was well attended and fun. The audience was quick to participate and had some interesting questions. They also fed us, which is always a nice bonus. All three of the events I did last week fed us. All other events should take note. Ha. Ha.

If you are a writer, published author, or want to be a writer, I think you can learn a lot of wonderful information at writers conferences. Hopefully, The Southern Pen Writers Conference will return.

THE WRAP UP-- ANOTHER EVENING WITH AUTHORS YOU SHOULD KNOW!

Host Doug Dahlgren takes the stage.

I had a great time with authors Lori Brudner Duff, Haywood Smith, and Fran Stewart Author on Friday night at the Doug Dahlgren Presents: "An Evening With Authors You Should Know" event at the Georgia Center for the Book at DCPLat the Decatur Library Auditorium. We had a fun time with the small, but enthusiastic crowd. You should totally check out the books of these amazing writers. 

My only regret was not getting a photo with all of us together.
