Showing and Telling: How to Create and Maintain Authentic Connections With Your Readers

You are invited to a free talk and Q&A session with author and writing instructor Erin Swann.

During this talk, Erin will show you how and (when) to "show" and "tell" your story -- so you can create an authentic connection with your readers, keep them engaged throughout your story, and build real trust that maintains their connection with the narrator, your story, and the characters living in it.

This talk is free and open to the public. You're welcome to attend live or sign up and watch the recording.

By signing up, we will also let you know about future lectures, workshops, and opportunities from The Writer's Workshop at Authors Publish.
