How to Build a Writing Community
Thursday, March 26th, 5:30-7:30 PM
Community. Everyone talks about how important it is, but how do writers find each other and support one another?
In this seminar, award-winning author Ekta R. Garg shares just why a writing community is so important (even for the most introverted of writers!) and how to go about building one. You'll learn practical tips on how to find others who are just as invested in the craft so you can get the support you need at different stages of your writing career.
