EVENTS

I get around.

Ok, to be honest, I hardly ever leave the three kilometre radius around my house. Or my studio. Have I shown you my studio?

I work here:

Isn’t my space nice? I love it.

If you want to encounter me live… or at least in real time, here are some opportunities:

December 2018 — TEXT ME, CUPID LAUNCH PARTY! Happening EVERYWHERE.

Sat, Jan 19, 2018 – “The Organized Creative” Alexandra Writers’ Centre Society – YYC

This hands-on workshop will show you how to organize your days by realistically planning your year, and working backwards-and-forwards throughout the year to stay on track with your goals. You will also learn how to track and maximize your productivity cycles, use a process journal, value your lazy fallow periods, and use your procrastination to nurture inspiration.

For more information & to register: AWCS

Weekend of Jan 19/20, 2019 – next YYC Queer Writers meet-up, at Dirk’s studio in Artist Standard Time

Sat, Feb 2, 2019 – ROMANCE REVOLUTION – YYC – probably at Library, stay tuned

Sat, March 2 – ”Plotting As Process & Productivity/Sanity Tool” at the Alexandra Writers’ Centre Society – YYC

Want to write a novel in 15 minute chunks? It’s easy–so long as you have a road map and understand that writing is only part of the process. Drawing on the “dirty writing secrets” of productive romance and genre writers, this practical workshop demystifies plotting and presents it to writers as an ongoing process that begins the moment you get the idea for your novel, and continues throughout the writing and editing stages. Suitable for both beginners who are afraid of plotting and advanced, published authors who want to up their productivity game.

DAMMIT, YOU MISSED ME! Check out some great stuff from the past at my EVENT ARCHIVE; or have a look at my COURSES & WORKSHOPS page for potential future workshops.

I throw really great launch parties and deliver terrific workshops and totally subvert what an author book signing is supposed to look like, and I’m open to all unreasonable invitations.
