President's
Corner
A monthly chapter overview by
NTRWA
President, Sherry Davis
April
2006
We have a great Spring line up of Speakers.
Don’t forget our April Workshop featuring the Love Inspired and
Silhouette Intrigue author Sharon Mignery will be a longer format. Come
comfortable and prepared to take in all the ups and downs of following a
manuscript through the publishing process. If you haven’t checked out
Sharon’s
website, I recommend it.
May will feature Bombshell author Cindy Dees on Writing the Military
Hero. She should know. Cindy is a military hero. She’s flown a list of
missions longer than my arm. I could tell you, but ... you know the
rest. Check out her
website.
And don’t forget to ask her about the belly dancing. <wink>
June is our Published Authors Round Table Critique, when our pubs agree
to be corralled for the day and take a look at the first ten pages of NT
Member’s manuscripts. This is a great opportunity to learn in a
face-to-face environment. How many of us have tried unsuccessfully to
understand those vague editor/agent rejections? A PAN member can help
you put a finger on the elements missing from the work and give you a
pat on the back for the things you’re doing well. Who wouldn’t want
that? Better start polishing those first ten pages.
And don’t forget our National Conference in Atlanta is coming up. Buy
raffle tickets from our Ways & Means Committee Co-Chairs if you’d like
to win the conference fee reimbursement.
That’s all for now.
Happy Writing!
