Hello everyone,
Sorry I've been absent from the board--I'm still trying to figure out how to market, promote and write books while still being a wife and mom. Not to mention that I belong to several writers' groups. I wanted to suggest that anyone who is interested in being a writer should look for groups in their area. Many will hold writers' conferences that you can attend even if you don't join. For those of you in Utah like me, check out:
League of Utah Writers: annual conference in September (all genres)
LDSStorymakers: annual conference in April (LDS market)
Writing on the Wall: annual conference in February (sci-fi)
Utah Christian Writers: conference in September
Utah Romance writers: Heart of the West October conference
