Are you a Writer? Do You Want to Be? Here’s a Some Great Help!
Every writer has to start somewhere, and here’s a great place for you to get started. Attend the Second Annual Re:Write Conference in Austin. The dates are October 18-20.
My friend and agent Esther Fedorkevich is the brains behind the conference, and I can promise you that it will be well worth your time and effort. My wife Susie attended last year and plans to attend again this year. She said that the access she got to such well-known writers and bloggers was what really made the conference for her. What she took away was invaluable. Speakers this year include Mark Batterson, Ted Dekker, Lisa TerKeurst, George Barna, Mary DeMuth and David Kinnaman.
I still have the file of the over 50 rejection letters I got when I was trying to break into writing. It can be really lonely and frustrating. I wish I’d had a conference like this to go to. Save yourself some heartache and a ton of postage! Attend Re:Write and get answers to questions like:
How do I reach and build my audience?
How do I decide whether to publish traditionally or self-publish?
What are creative, new ideas that I can start practicing as a writer?
What role does branding play in my success as an author?
What are innovative ways to market my book, blog, or writing?
How important is networking to making it in the publishing industry?
From the Re:Write web site:
The Re:Write Conference takes a realistic and holistic approach to answering these questions by utilizing the experiences and wisdom of authors and speakers that have “been there.” These individuals break down all the walls of pretense and pride, sit down with their fellow writers, and share about how they made it to where they are and the lessons they learned along the way. Unlike other writers conferences, the Re:Write Conference limits registrations so it can provide the most intimate, accessible environment for writers to learn, network, and grow. With time carved out to interact with the highly successful yet humble roster of speakers, attendees find value that can be directly applied to improve every aspect of their writing careers.
