Class: The Marathoner's Guide to Writing: Staying in It for the Long Haul without Losing Your Patience, Your Perspective, or Your Mind
Class Dates: Monday, June 18 - Friday, June 22
Instructor: Colleen Thompson
Class Description: How do some authors manage to stay fresh, relevant, and published, while so many others burn out and fade away after only one or two books? With 20 books and more than a dozen years of experience behind her, RITA-nominated, best-selling romantic suspense author Colleen Thompson shares wisdom she's collected from numerous veteran authors on the qualities that will help prepare you to survive and thrive for the long haul.
Topics for discussion will include:
• Balancing the needs of the market with the needs of your muse
• Keeping criticism and rejection in perspective
• Keeping both your ego and professional jealousy in check
• Honoring and accepting your own pace and talents
• Continually striving for improvement
