Writers:<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
First and foremost, do not forget the Saturday workshop this week (6\/18) at the North Bend Library Meeting Room beginning at 10:30 a.m. until noon. These workshops are an excellent way to get feedback and push your writing efforts forward.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
You may also carve out writing time at any of the writing cafes, either Wednesday nights at Little Si Cafe or Friday mornings at The Blkack Dog.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In the meantime, if you need to charge forward in your writing, let’s take a moment and work on just one scene. Pick a scene in your present work in progrees. Any scene. You probably know which one needs the most help. Don’t be afraid. Don’t be shy. Now get ready to make it better. Is there sensory language in the scene? Is there dialogue that moves the story forward? Is there a lie or a secret in that scene? What can you do to make it more compelling and keep your reader reading.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Just take it in a chunk at a time. Make is shine off the page. If you walk away from it after a final reread and say, “Did I write that?” You know it’s ready to go.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
And now your moment of Writing Zen:<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cNo tears in the writer, no tears in the reader. No surprise in the writer, no surprise in the reader.\u201d
