16 - Writing Conferences

Mary and Melissa are hitting the road and talking about cons (aka writing conventions). Find out where we are headed this summer, what cons are our favorites, and the pros and cons (pun intended) of going big or staying home. How do you find a con? What do you do to prepare? We’ve got tips to help writers at all stages of their career.

Plus this week’s quote reminds us how powerful an evocative description can be in your writing.
