2009 Muse Online Conference

I wanted to mention that it is time for folks to register for the Muse Online Conference. This conference is totally FREE and it is for all writers. Doesn't matter if you write for adults or children. Everyone should find something they can use and something they can learn.

Lea Schizas connects writers with agents and publishers. Writers from all over the world gather to share ideas in October every year.

The workshops are wonderful. And since it's online, if you miss a workshop, you can always attend the next one or download a transcript onto your computer. There are chat rooms where you can connect with other writers.

It lasts for seven days from October 12-18th. This year you get an opportunity to pitch your story or idea to one of the publishers at the conference.

I recommend Devon Ellington's dialogue workshop. Participants post short scenes for constructive comments from both Devon and fellow students.

I hope to see some of you there. :)

And please don't forget the upcoming interview with Tess Hilmo. :)

  1. Robyn - the deadline on the registration form indicates August 1 was the final day to enter the contest. I can't find anywhere on the site where they extended the date. Do you know if they have? Thanks.

  2. It's not a contest Scott. It's a conference. I have emailed Lea and will let you know as soon as I hear back. :)
