Pima Writers' Workshop

Pima Writers' Workshop 2013 encouraged me, inspired me, and increased my writing skills and understanding.

 

I hope my few notes have given you a hint of how great a learning experience this wonderful workshop can be. Often what I gained can't be crystallized into a few words. And what you gain would be different from what I gain; we each bring different experiences and skills with us and respond uniquely.

You'll just have to experience it yourself.

 

Sometimes my words simply can not capture the insights given by the emotional impact of the presenter's life. Time with Nancy Mairs will change your life. www.nancymairs.com

 

Robert Gover, Tanya Chernov (www.tanyachernov.com), and Debra Gwartney (www.debragwartney.com) also enriched the this year's workshop with their experiences.

 

A lot of writers like to talk to good agents because they are about as hard to find as a deer on the third day of deer season. This year Gordon Warnock, a founding partner of Foreword Literary, stood in the light. (forewordliterary.com)

 

Mark it on your calendar. It is always the Memorial Day weekend in May. Thursday night is the reception; Friday through Sunday, the lectures, readings, and exercises. It is a remarkable opportunity to have a short one-on-one with an author about up to twenty pages of your work. Be advised to have that work done and ready to send by the start of May.

 

As May approaches keep looking for information at www.pima.edu; if you do not find it, email Pima Writers' Workshop Director, Meg Files.  (mfiles@pima.edu)
