Business for Writing-WGA Update!

  Last Saturday I was invited by the Writers Guild to attend a "Business for Writing" seminar which was instructed by Albertan author and Writer in Residence, Marty Chan.  It was very interesting and useful for aspiring writers to who are trying to become published authors.  I helped Nick take names as well as introduce and talk about the Writers Guild.  I also conducted a survey on the quality of the seminar.  Being able to sit in a seminar that the WGA gives me insight on what kind of services are provided for members at the Writers Guild.  I got to learn about the tools and tips to self-publish, market, and sell your writings.  I also got to meet a bunch of people at the seminar and I took the opportunity to gain some knowledge about writing, as well as recognition of the Writers Guild among the writing population.  This seminar was free and available to everyone, WGA members or not, and increases a sense of community for writers.  If you would like more information on free writing seminars visit http://www.writersguild.ab.ca/
