IndieReCon 2014, in its second year, is a free online writer's conference dedicated to indie publishing.

Last year with over 10,000 visitors, IndieReCon was awesome with chats and giveaways and days of helpful and pertinent information.

This year will be even bigger and better!

To kick us off, our keynote speakers, Barry Eisler and Joe Konrath, will host a 2-hour chat to talk about The Evolving Indie Industry and Standing out in the Pile and then entertain your questions.

You'll also discover insider secrets from representatives from Amazon, Kobo, Smashwords and Goodreads, and learn how to write fast, try your hand at serials, work with other authors to maximize your marketing efforts and much, much more.

We have contests and tons of giveaways including two KOBO eReaders!

Tarot For Writing: Creating 3-D Characters With Arwen Lynch Poe

This may be old news to some of you, but I just ran across it on my Facebook page. Always love (free) writing classes. At least I think it's free. It does mention fundraising, but I didn't see where it said anything on either the facebook or blogtalk radio page about donations or a fee. I asked, but haven't received a response as of yet :) Maybe someone knows...?

Anyway, if you're interested, here's the info posted on the FB page:

Tarot For Writing: Creating 3-D Characters With Arwen Lynch Poe
 


Saturday March 1st at 10:00 AM EST 9:00 AM CST 7:00 AM PST

March is for Fundraising and we’re starting the month off with a mini class from Arwen Lynch Poe! Bring Your Decks, Bring Your Notebooks!

A new way to approach your writing. Hang on to your manuscripts as she unleashes the power of Tarot for you. In a typical online workshop, you will learn how to utilize the Tarot for yourself on a personal level. Meet your characters as you have never met them before. Learn about their quirks and let your journey through the cards introduce you to their own past. Writer’s Block will never be a problem again with the Tarot cards to give you insight.
 
Call in number: (347) 989-0744
Or
Skype in after the show begins

Hiatus Over

It's been way too long since I've posted. I feel so rusty! I've been wanting to get back to my blog, but life has a way of interfering, that and/or I'm huge procrastinator. Whichever the case, enough is enough. So, I"m going to try and post a couple of times a week, to start, and see how that goes, and hopefully increase as info and time allows. 

A huge thank you to those of you who have stayed with me, hung in there and haven't unsubscribed from RWW's. It's greatly appreciated. :)

So, without further ado, (following this blog) will be my first post-hiatus post.

Enjoy!
