January 12th meeting: DEA; Writers Conferences

Need a change of pace for your next novel or story? Maybe you could focus on a different aspect of law enforcement, such as the DEA. Please join us in welcoming DEA Special Agent Stephen McGuigan, who will talk about drug trends in Southern Arizona, and techniques used in narcotics investigations.

We’ll have a delicious lunch, and a fun book drawing.

In our afternoon session, we will hear about “How to Select A Writers’ Conference That Works For You.” It’s often said that attending a writers’ conference can jump-start your writing career. But a great conference is more than its location. In this workshop, Kelli Peacock and Kathy McIntosh will review some conferences they’ve loved, and hear from audience members about their favorites. Then we’ll all discuss how to set your objectives and find a great conference that’s perfect for you.
