Christian Writers' Conference in Southern California

Contact: Pastor Don Patterson, 661-722-0891

 

ANTELOPE VALLEY, Calif., Jan. 6 /Christian Newswire/ -- We are pleased to announce that the third annual Antelope Valley Christian Writers' Conference has been scheduled for May 2-3, 2008.

 

Never heard of the Antelope Valley? It's a semi-rural desert community in the High Desert of Southern California, near Los Angeles.

 

Whether you're an absolute beginner -- a seasoned professional -- or somewhere in-between, this may be for you. If you enjoy writing, and you'd like to learn how the publishing business works, you are welcome to attend. We have assembled a distinguished faculty of experienced writers and editors, each of whom has a ministry dedicated to helping other writers to succeed.

 

Here, you will have the opportunity to interact with professional writers and editors, and attend workshops in a wide array of creative categories. You'll meet fellow writers who share your calling – your zeal – and perhaps your frustrations as well. You can trade ideas, share experiences, and support one another in prayer.

 

In the general session, and in the workshops, we will discuss:

 

  • How can you improve your writing skills?

 

  • How should a Christian approach his writing?

 

  • What's keeping you from getting published?

 

  • What do editors and publishers look for, when evaluating a manuscript?

 

You can learn how to hone your craft and achieve your goals through excellent instruction and one-on-one mentoring. Together, we can help you take your writing to the next level, the best it can be.

 

In addition to our workshops, you can take advantage of:

 

  • Group discounts for churches and schools;

 

  • A writing contest with cash prizes;

 

  • Free critiques from our faculty;

 

  • Books from Barnes & Noble;

 

  • Free wireless Internet; and

 

  • Complimentary refreshments and a continental breakfast.

 

Have we piqued your interest?

 

We will meet in the facilities of The Antelope Valley Church, a non-denominational congregation on the Westside of the city of Lancaster. Several budget-priced hotels are in the local area for your convenience.

See you there!
