I'm going to be presenting at a workshop in Santa Cruz in May hosted by publishing veteran and freelance editor Janet Goldstein. Janet and Laura Davis are hosting a free teleclass this Tuesday and I thought people here might be interested in participating: http://www.getpublishedsantacruz.com/call/
Here's the event description:
Dear Novice and Advanced Writers, Coaches, Change Agents, Thought Leaders, Storytellers,
Do you know that “writing” and “publishing” are two very different arts—and they both take practice?
Are you worried about being hurt or frustrated by the process of “going public"?
Do you think you need to “finish” your work before you can share it, publish it, promote it?
Are you sure that publishing is what you need to do next—for your business, your cause, or your soul--but need more direction, clarity, momentum, confidence, or support to make the leap?
In today’s “New World of Publishing,” the most successful authors understand and develop the different mindsets, relationships, strategies, and tools for “writing” and “publishing.” This fluency in both realms leads them—and can lead YOU--to experience more creative potential, freedom, and success with your work.
On this free live call, Laura and Janet will teach an all-new framework and 5 simple yet powerful lessons that can transform and clarify your next steps in the writing and publishing journey, including:
The “CRAFT LESSON” and how thinking like a “maker of something” has a powerful impact
The “THEATER LESSON” of collaboration and how you can reap the benefits of other peoples’ skills to make your publishing dreams come true
The “MAGICIAN LESSON” and the importance of the author-audience connection
The “AIRPLANE RUNWAY LESSON” and why publishing is part of a continuum that doesn’t come “out of thin air”
The “CIRCLE OF SAFETY LESSON” and what you can learn about intimacy with your work as well as separation between you and work
