2018 Pikes Peak Writers Conference

I spent last weekend at PPWC and, again this year, had a great time. Such an organized, friendly, and well-run conference, and I was very pleased to attend this year as a faculty member. Despite their original GOH cancelling only a couple of months ago, they pulled together four fabulous speakers - a hilarious speech by Mary Robinette Kowal, an emotional one by Laurell K. Hamilton, a rousing one by Bob Mayer, and an uplifting and inspiring send off by Jonathan Mayberry.

Over the three days, I taught a short story workshop and a 2-hour prose workshop, as well as co-facilitating a genre-roundtable on short story writing. I also had the pleasure of meeting and chatting with Jonathan one evening along with other faculty, agents, and editors over the weekend, and many staff and attendees. As usual, I neglected to take photos or post during the conference, but the 2019 PPWC is already on my calendar as an event not to be missed!

Oh - and to the last two people I offered a free copy of A Borrowed Hell and then couldn't get them to you right away, I'm so sorry. I looked for you right through lunch on Sunday. Feel free to contact me through my website and I'll send them to you!
