Write ON!: What to do When Things Go Wrong

Join us as our Keynote speaker for Write ON! Colleen Winter presents: What to do When Things Go Wrong, Navigating the Highs and Lows of a Writing Career.

A writing career can often leave you feeling bruised and battered, whether you are starting out or are a seasoned author. Colleen Winter is both traditionally and self-published and has had her share of highs and lows during her author career. Join us for a discussion on all forms of publishing, and how to ultimately thrive and survive in the long game of an author career.
