Just got back from my first visit as a speaker at Winchester Writers Conference. I was overwhelmed by the dedication and commitment of so many people to their writing. It was my first time as a one to one tutor. I genuinely liked the pieces I had been sent to look at so it was easy to be encouraging. I hope the suggestions I made were helpful.
For myself, it was a good place to take stock of where I'm up to and why I write.


I enjoy telling stories
I enjoy using words
It's a nice way to make a living


Ways forward include
Need to

a. start a blog

b. Keep links going with new people I met there

c. Try new writing styles and techniques

d. Be more adventurous in my reading choices
