Allow me to evangelize about the Surrey International Writers Conference just a little. I’m having a great time, because the people are nice, but what I’ve been impressed by is how open people are to trying new things and to learning. It is a professional development conference for writers and it is clear, from the caliber of writing that I’ve been seeing from repeat attendees that they are doing something write.
I’ve just gotten in after a lovely evening spent talking to folks. I a wee bit tuckered so I’m going to turn in BUT for the folks who were in my Writing on the Fast Track workshop today, here are the exercises I mentioned.
Exercising your storytelling techniques
Using narration and context to shape dialogue
Nice to meet you yesterday, Mary. Thanks for a very useful workshop. I hope you enjoy the rest of the conference and a good trip home.
Thank you! It was lovely to meet you as well. The conference was great. I hope to see you next year.
