In addition, the Fall Writer’s Conference will host two brand new and unique events: A FREE introduction to writing and publishing for the general public each night of the event that will be a comprehensive introduction to the process and business of writing. This one-hour community writing workshop and lecture will take place at 6:30pm on Friday, Oct. 12th and again at 5pm on Saturday, Oct. 13th. New authors and writers will have the opportunity to ask questions and get insights from dozens of published authors in attendance.

But, please, mark your calendar as these will be extraordinarily informative for anyone wanting to learn about writing and publishing!
