Writers Of The Future Workshop Now Opened To The Public
August 22, 2015
Hollywood, CA – Writers Of The Future Workshop – August 29-30, 2015 – Dave Farland, Orson Scott Card, Kevin J. Anderson, Rebecca Moesta, and The Winner Twins will be teaming up with the Writers Of The Future to deliver an exclusive writing workshop that few writers have ever experienced. That’s because until now the workshop has only been offered to the actual winners of the Writer’s Of The Future contest, as a means for the winners to secure agents and publishers, where the contest judges, all highly acclaimed authors themselves, shared their war stories and secrets.
The Writers Of The Future Program has grown from humble roots to become the largest and most highly respected new talent discovery vehicle in the publishing field. One out of three winners of their coveted annual award goes on to become a published author with multiple novels and short stories. To date, the 426 writing  award winners have published nearly 1,000 novels and over 4,000 short stories. They have produced 12 New York Times bestsellers and winner’s works have sold over 52 million copies.
After thirty years of keeping the course exclusive to their award winners, Writers Of The Future has decided to open the class up to the general public, though there are only 100 seats available.
The workshop will cover the entire business of writing process from crafting an idea to scheduling time to write to editing to finding the right agent and ultimately publishing what you write. This ongoing workshop series will be taught by veteran authors from the field who will share the secrets of their success with the attendees. Writers of the Future has just announced the instructors for the first upcoming workshop to be held August 29th and 30th will be Dave Farland, Orson Scott Card, Kevin J. Anderson, Rebecca Moesta, and The Winner Twins.
When: Aug 29th (9:30 am to 5:00 pm) and Aug 30th (9:30 am to 6:00 pm)
Where: 7051 Hollywood Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90028
Cost: $385.00
