Wordfest Southwest 2020 Field Guide Sponsored By Welcome Thank you for coming to WORDfest SW 2020! We created the original WORDfest to help writers connect with fellow writers. We provide zero-pressure opportunities to socialize, learn something new, and maybe find your tribe. We created WORDfest SW to bring this WORDfest magic to our part of the DFW Metroplex. In addition, we're focusing the spotlight on the amazing talent growing right here in our own backyard! Please sit back, take notes, and enjoy! -Bud Humble on behalf of WORDfest Southwest staff, planning committee, and volunteers Schedule Culture Building for Image is Everything, Apocalypse HOW?

Take some notes from the field of anthropology and learn about the characteristics of cultures. We'll cover how to create unique, diverse populations in your fiction. Krystal Craiker 10:00- Image Is Everything, Isn't It...? Five Images of a Writer 10:45 That person in the mirror…who is it? Are you who and where you want to be? There are a lot of parts and pieces that make up who we are as writers. We need to at least be aware of them when we walk out the door and into the public eye. Cathy Rueter 10:00- Apocalypse HOW? 10:45 From tornados to terrorist attacks to pandemics – cities, counties, and states plan for a wide range of emergencies. Emergency Management is a profession of “Disaster Conceriges” who help coordinate resources and provide education on what to do to prepare for, respond to, and recover from disasters. We’ll go through the basics of what makes a good apocalypse and how those events might be responded to – on a large scale and the individual. Rhonda Eudaly 3 11:00- Whoa, Nellie! 11:45 Explore some of the worst mistakes writers make about horses and how to avoid them. Horses are complex emotional creatures of habit yet many writers portray them as cardboard cutouts to be left standing in the corner. Learn to use your hero’s equine companions to add layers of depth to your characterizations and plotting. We’ll discuss horse training, equine health issues, all the quirky perks of traveling with a horse and how to use them to create conflict for your hero. Becky Burkheart 11:00- Slaying Your Personal Dragons 11:45 This presentation teaches creative people how to edit their self- defeating behaviors, rewrite their negative thoughts, and design emotional stability for themselves. The goal is positive personal development that leads to writing success. Kerin Groves, PhD 11:00- Diversity Is Good Business 11:45 Each individual is unique. Recognizing those individual differences can separate your business from the next. In this session, you will be given the 3R's needed to approach diversity organically and build relationships that last. Joy Massenburge 11:45 – lunch break!

Peggy Purser Freeman 12:30- Writing Compelling Book Blurbs 1:15 Congratulations! You wrote a 70,000-word novel. Now condense it to 150–200 words. In this workshop, we’ll dissect amazing (and not-so- amazing) blurbs so you can learn how to captivate your reader with the first sentence. Shayla Raquel 5 1:30- Creativity Jumpstarts 2:15 Are you stuck on your WIP? Or trying to find a starting point for a new project? Try out a few hands-on creativity exercises to jumpstart your ideas. Participants will also learn about strategies for overcoming writer’s block, and the group will quick-plot a story. Amber Royer 1:30- The Producer's Mindset 2:15 Planning is preparing; whether to define your audience, a plot line, or a character arc. In this lecture, Screenwriter Daniel Wells will take writers through a checklist of ten developmental steps towards your creative project, and apply that towards your current or future project. Development is the stage in screenwriting before a creative project goes into production, The development process discussed in this workshop applies to all creative projects. Daniel Wells 1:30- Nailing Words Into a Book 2:15 You've written a masterpiece, had it critiqued by partners, done and/or paid for edits, and scrubbed it like a farmer on Saturday. How do you transform it from a computer file to a published book? Specifically, page numbers, headers, front pages, back pages, blank pages-- everything. Freelance formatter Lee Carver will share the processes she has worked years to develop, and then take your questions at the end.

Although she has yet to ride in a space ship (she did get to simulate crashing a 727) or to meet a real vampire (that she's aware of), anachronistic dress, "QaQ poHmey" and pints of brew (yes, it comes in pints) are standard fare on the odd weekend.

They reached JSA: The Golden Age Deluxe Edition 1st edition to Johnny, recruited Hourman and prepared to thwart Thompson's plans by any means necessary. The plot is a bit too predictable for my tastes, but may be opaque to those without a good knowledge of DC WWII continuity. The biggest red mark against the book is an odd decision about coloring. This includes both titles with the Elseworlds Logo, and titles retroactively declared as Elseworlds Stories. Original Title. Oct 14, Dan Schwent rated it really liked it Shelves:comicsmighty-con. But once I got it, I enjoyed it immensely. Not to get too in the weeds, but I like the idea that Starman's tampering accidentally created the circumstances JSA: The Golden Age Deluxe Edition 1st edition would allow a world of superheroes to exist. I've had this book for ages, but just picked it up this morning and read it. I don't find it cynical at all, and not at all dark by the end of the story. It is the end of World War IIand with it the beginning of the end of the glory days for both the Justice Society and the All-Star Squadron as the teams break up and the various members face their own personal crises in the aftermath. A void was there, and Thompson stepped in.

  • Here at the Writers’ League of Texas, Welcome to the 26Th Annual Agents & Editors Conference
    On behalf of everyone here at the Writers’ League of Texas, welcome to the 26th annual Agents & Editors Conference. The other day I was talking with a local writer and friend who said, “Writers write. Authors revise.” It’s a pithy quote and, of course, a generalization. The East Texas master of horror and crime Joe R. Lansdale has said he doesn’t revise at all; he just makes sure each page is right before he moves on to the next. But my friend’s point stands, I think. Being an author means committing to writing for the long haul, not just when inspiration strikes. That’s why you’re here. You’ve done the work on your manuscript—and continue to do the work—and now you want to move to the next stage: publication. As with writing, publishing is best measured in the long term. It takes time to find an agent, to revise the manuscript, to make the sale to a publishing house, to revise again for your editor, for the book to be printed and arrive on shelves, for it to find its way to readers, and for the next book to be written and sold and the entire process to happen all over again. There’s also an element of unpredictability involved. The author Tayari Jones recently wrote about how her first three novels made little or no money—and then she received a call from Oprah telling her that her fourth novel An American Marriage would be part of the Oprah Book Club. When she went to cash her first royalty check, she said she felt shy about it and needed to explain herself.
