ACW Writers’ Day
October 8, 2016 @ 10:00 am - 4:00 pm
£27
The ACW (Association of Christian Writers) London Writers Day is now open for booking. With talks by Andrew Chamberlain and Amy Boucher Pye, a chance to pitch your book to Lion Hudson Commissioning Editor Ali Hull, and fellowship with fellow ACW writers, this is sure to be a day packed with learning and fun.
My Morning Plenary: Discovering and Harnessing your Creativity
In Amy’s work as a commissioning editor, she loved helping authors release their creativity and passion in writing books that also met a need in the marketplace. She’ll share some of the key principles and approaches for releasing creativity within the constraints of the market. How can our muses flourish when they are competing in such a crowd?
My Afternoon Seminar: The Art of Editing: Learning to Slice and Dice to Set Your Words Free
Mark Haddon says, “I’m not a terribly good writer. I am, however, a very persistent and bloody-minded editor.” Amy will share from her over two decades of editorial experience how to edit your own material, including hands-on exercises. Get out your red pens, people, and delete!
