I had the privilege last weekend of speaking to the annual workshop for Saturday Writers, a group based in St. Peters, Mo. Writers’ conferences are a little weird — after all, writing is such a solitary act. But it does us good as writers to emerge from our dens and desks occasionally to talk with other writers!

I tried to make my presentation as practical and hands-on as I could — since I’m a longtime teacher, I think I know how to make good use of time in a structured group presentation.

Talking to Saturday Writers. Thanks to Jennifer Hashieder, Karen Guccione, and Becky Povich for helping me find a photo!
