XML FeedsNetworking with Writers
By david167 on Feb 2, 2009 | In Welcome
One of the most important things I have learned over the last few years in this sapling of a writing career is the importance of networking with other writers. Regardless if they have been well published or just starting out, regardless of their style and genre (fiction, non-fiction, newsletters, poetry, etc.) of writing they all bring with them some level of experience and the intensity of creativity that comes with the discussions and sharing of our art.
Regardless if it is at an open mic night, seminar, workshop, writing group meeting, conference, or even a social site discussion board, there is a propagation of knowledge and inventiveness that spreads between writers. Critique and writers clubs may not be for everyone. I know some fellow writers who hate public speaking so much that they would refuse to come an open mic night. Regardless of the method, the important things in networking are to be comfortable with meeting other writers and sharing information about and love of our art.
