The Writer's Life Series
Last night, I was on a panel at the Cambridge Center for Adult Education. The topic? The Writer's Life Series: From Idea to Bookshelf: Authors Share Their Publishing Stories. Hosted by Charles Coe, the panelists included nonfiction authors Saloma Miller Furlong and Jerald Walker.
We had a good chemistry, and we received a nice mix of questions on how we got started as writers, how to navigate the publishing world, and our process for writing. Though we come from different backgrounds, I think we have similar approaches to our work ethic. There's just no substitution for hard work and persistence.
Doug Holder will be on a panel next week!

NaPoWriMo baby! Three drafts written, more to come. Be kind with comments. The poems posted this month are drafts.

I did not receive a Guggenheim Fellowship. Oh well. It was my first time applying and certainly not my last. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
