Ah, the wasteland that is December until anticipation for the next writers conference starts to build . . .
Except that it’s not a wasteland at all! Between now and November there are many resources available to help you learn, grow, and engage. Recorded conference sessions are available via YouTube in Library OnDemand, as are the pre-recorded lectures for those of you that missed them. We also have plenty of author talks from the Library Speakers Consortium that are sure to inspire.
Upcoming talks include topics like Dystopian Tropes from an Indigenous Perspective: In Conversation with Waubgeshig Rice, Power of Reset and How to Change What’s Not Working with Dan Heath, and Wordsmith and Wonder with Jodi Picoult. Recordings include gems like An Inside Look at Working with a Literary Agent: A Conversation with Seth Fishman, and A Deep Dive in Character Development with Global Sensation Liane Moriarty. Host a watch party and discuss with friends!
