We all know crime shows exaggerate or misconstrue many aspects of our judicial system. What is the reality of how courts operate, and how does that fit into our writing? Please join us in welcoming Barbara Sattler, former defense attorney and judge, who will walk us through the misconceptions and tell us how the court system really works.
We’ll have a delicious lunch, and a fun book drawing.
In our afternoon session, Kris Neri, author, writing instructor, and freelance editor, will present on how to sharpen your self-editing skills. Whether a writer intends to self-publish or present work for traditional publication, projects need to be clean and polished, as well as compellingly and effectively written. Dividing the work into major and minor elements, Kris will lead you through a checklist guaranteed to make your WIP stronger and better written.
