Author and
Publisher Team to Offer Free Teleseminar on Bringing A Writers'
Dream to Life
Author advocate Carolyn Howard-Johnson and publisher Patrika
Vaughn are teaming up to present a free teleseminar to writers
who want to tell their own stories, as memoir or as fiction.
Thus it is for genealogists, journalists and story tellers
everywhere.
The teleseminar titled "How To Write Your Life Story" will be
moderated by award-winning speaker and author, Allyn Evans who
is also the author of Grab the Queen Power: Live Your Best Life,
based on her own experiences.
Howard-Johnson will share her experience of turning her family's
genealogy and stories in her award-winning novel This Is the
Place and using the leftover stories from that effort in a book
of creative nonfiction short stories, Harkening: A Collection of
Stories Remembered. Her experiences will inform those inclined
to publish their stories but who need more information about how
that might come to be. She even used family memories in her
chapbook of poetry, Tracings. All three books are multiple
award-winners. She is also working on a memoir, Here's How I
Don't Cook.
Vaughn, author of How to Write Your Own Life Story or Your
Family's Saga, will talk about how to turn this material into a
book, covering:
1) why you should write it
2) how to go about it (even if you've never before written
anything but emails)
3) how to make it interesting to others
Writers are invited to listen and come prepared with their
questions at noon on July 12th EST . Call 1-218-936-7999. When
