Thanks for the heads-up on this, Carolyn. Love that the event is both international and on-line.
ReplyDeleteHope you'll send us out a reminder closer to the date. Sounds like a great topic.
ReplyDeleteAlthough online is good...I'm thinking going to Rome for the conference would be a lot more fun. :)
I'm looking forward to this years edition (and you're workshop Carolyn :))
ReplyDeleteThe feedback so far has been fantastic. This year's event is set to be the best yet.

I look forward to seeing you all there and getting to know you better.

P.S. Allyn, maybe one day I'll be able to organise an in-person event here in Rome. It would be a great city to host an event like this in... now you've got me thinking of yet another project... :)
Maybe entice writers by putting together a travel/tour package to all the great sites of Rome (and around)...and somewhere in there teach a writing course, two or three!
