2nd Writer's Workshop: From Vision To Victory

Hey #JustWrite!! We are getting closer to the end of the 1st quarter of 2017 and are going into a new season. What better way to prepare for such a time as this then our upcoming 2nd writer's workshop.  As Kim stated this week, the event is write around the corner for all of our aspiring authors who are ready to birth their projects and veteran authors who will be offering their expertise and insight from their respective platforms. This year the event will be expanded to 3 days from March 24-26. You may be asking, "what do those 3 days entail?"  



Well, for the first day of the workshop, our Insight segment will feature Paris Love who will be facilitating "The Write Vision", where participants will create vision boards pertaining to their books/businesses. 

The second day of the workshop will begin with the Ignite segments with an introduction session from Tia McCollors (Just Write) who will encourage writers to put their thoughts to a pen on paper.

There will also be 3 break out sessions featuring speakers, Tanya Bryant (The Write Brand), Tonia Phanor (The Write Plan), and Marlean Tucker (The Write Connections). Tanya will be teaching on branding: understanding who you are and how to inform the world. Tonia will lead her session on setting clear goals, being intentional about your schedule, meeting the write people, and knowing how to market yourself. For the third session, Marlean will be teaching on social media and website content with the focus on learning to express yourself and being authentic. Attendees will have the opportunity to choose the early afternoon session or the late afternoon session. The concluding breakout session will be led by Sharon Frame (The Write View) who will show writers how to present themselves to the world by turning their books into speaking engagements. 



On the third day of the workshop, we will have the Just Write segment which includes a Literary Exposure event which will allow authors and service providers to showcase their books and businesses to attendees. This event will take place immediately after Sunday service. Like Jesus, by the third day of the workshop, our prayer is that your flesh has died to those old habits and you have risen to your assignments as writers. (Resurrection joke, lol). On a serious note, we are excited for this workshop and the plethora of information that will overflow from the speakers to the attendees. Who knows, maybe you will be a featured speaker for next year's event. With God, all things are possible. As always, our main focus is to encourage everyone to utilize their scribal gifts. Remember, we are going from vision to victory. Let us not lose sight of that and like the scripture says, grow weary in well doing. We only have 9 more days until the event so be sure to join us next week by registering at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/just-write-writers-workshop-tickets-32263061686. We look forward to seeing you!
