The title for this entry is stolen. It’s the theme from the 2020 Utah Valley
University Writers Academy. Since I am among the workshop presenters, I
will not be indicted for the theft.
Owing to the coronavirus, covid-19, the worldwide pandemic, social
distancing, and other related considerations, UVU opted to put this year’s conference
online. So, what was scheduled to take place October 9 and 10 will, instead, be
spread from October 9 through November 6, with a selection of (mostly) Thursday
evening online workshops along with other events on other days. You’ll find more
information on the UVU
Writers Academy web site, and you can register
online. And there’s this, #UVUWriters2020, if you know what it’s for. I don’t.
If you write, want to write, hope to write, or wish to write, you’ll
find the UVU Writers Academy helpful. Register, and you can access the online
workshops and presentations live, and the sessions will be recorded for viewing
or reviewing afterwards.
My contribution to the event, “How to Build a Book without a Blueprint,”
is scheduled for November 5 at 6:00 pm. By then, I hope to have figured out how
to pull it off.
I’ll send a reminder. See you (sort of) there.
Rod, Will have to check this out. Does UVU still do the Marylin Brown Novel Award? It put my Boots and Saddles: A Call to Glory on the road to a publishing contract. Good luck with you session. Hope all is well.
ReplyDeleteGood to hear from you, Paul. Not sure if they still do that. There is a flash fiction contest associated with the Academy, but that's a whole 'nother thing.
