I’m talking about Deep Point of View to the California Writers’ Club in Sacramento Friday June 2, 9-11 am. Anyone can attend–whether in person or on Zoom. There should be a recording on their website afterwards. Teaching workshops like this is a fun part of settling in to my writer life in California. I tell you all about it in this week’s post.
Join me for a writers seminar on November 5, 12-4:15 pm in Elk Grove, California (near Sacramento). I’m teaching how to write better dialogue.
The Writer’s Connection at Desert Foothills Library is hosting me to teach a dialogue workshop (on Zoom) July 1, 1-3 pm Arizona time. It’s free and open to everyone. Writing dialogue well has never come easily to me, but there are good techniques that anyone can learn.
Even in my current locked-down existence, writer friends gather virtually and we learn from each other. This past Saturday, the Arizona Historical Novel Society hosted Karen Odden to talk about writing secondary characters. She’s a masterful author of historical fiction set in the Victorian period, and I was eager for her insights. She didn’t disappoint. I discuss the ideas I gleaned from her and showcase her excellent Victorian mysteries.
