FINDING YOUR VOICE WITHOUT LOSING YOUR COOL: BALANCING WRITING & LIFE

September 15, 2023 @ 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm America/Halifax

FINDING YOUR VOICE WITHOUT LOSING YOUR COOL: BALANCING WRITING & LIFE with Judith Graves, Sara Roach Lewis & Jenene Wooldridge.

***THIS IS A PAY WHAT YOU CAN EVENT — $1 to $20 PER PARTICIPANT***
How do writers make time to focus on their publishing goals when raising children, running organizations and splitting shifts with other ambitions? Join entrepreneur Sara Roach Lewis (author of She Rules) and Mi’kmaq community leader, Jenene Wooldridge (author of Living Full Circle: Living with Balance and Intention Inspired by Medicine Wheel Teachings), and award winning young adult fiction writer Judith Graves (author of A Tale of Two Kitties) as we take a deep dive into how we get those books written, one chapter, one paragraph, one line at a time. With more special guests announced shortly.
