I attended the Writer’s Workshop at FenCon XIV in Dallas this year. The facilitator was the ever-insightful Cat Rambo. I was in with 14 other writers, critiquing and soaking up insights from Cat for 4 days.

It was WONDERFUL.

Not only did I learn a ton about writing and about how others approach the craft, but the workshop refueled the tiny writer’s flame in my heart–which had been sputtering of late.

I immediately took home the various suggestions made about the story I had submitted for critique and really worked at tightening it up and making it better. I’ve re-titled it and have sent it out to a market for possible publication.

I can’t emphasize enough how great this workshop was. It was a great bunch of folks with a great teacher. It can’t get any better than that.

I’m the one with the subtle beard in the front…
