THE PUBLISHING INDUSTRY VS THE ECONOMY
The publishing industry is going through more change today due to the economy
than any
time in recent history. Terry talked with Editors, agents, and publishing
industry
sources and pulled together a good update on how today’s economy is
impacting
the industry . . . and writers.
The most popular session at most
conferences are the agent and
editor panels. If participants
are not available Terry will do a Q & A session
honestly answering
the attendee questions to the best of his ability, not
only drawing on his
own knowledge and experience, but on that drawn
from hearing the
responses from over 100 such conferences and such
Very few people make a living writing
books. Those who do make their living
writing full time usually supplement
book writing with free-lance writing, articles
and short stories, ghost writing or
work for hire, online content and a variety of
other things that combine to provide
an adequate income. Terry will talk about
how to do it.
"Pitching and working with
agents."
Are you ready for an
agent? How do you know? How do you get one?
What are each of our
agents looking for? How to structure a
proposal.

ideas come from? How do I get started? Much

How do I use the 3 act play
structure to write works of fiction?
Working
with the library
How and why to develop interfaces
with the library. Why online research is not
the best research. What libraries
can do for you as a writer and how you
can help them in return.
"Using Fiction to Spread God's Word" – 21st century parables
Are you one of those who don't read Christian fiction because it's
. . . well . . . fiction?
Jesus used fiction to make some of his most important points
because people could
easily relate to them, they're called parables. Terry talks about
using fiction in order to
spread God's word and about the difference between writing for the
Christian market
and writing in hopes of reaching an unbeliever.
"Too shy to pitch and promote?"
Believe it or not,
Terry is very shy and introverted, but has learned how to
overcome it and
present an exciting and fast-moving program. Lots of writers
are drawn to writing
because they have trouble expressing themselves verbally.
Many consciously or
unconsciously sabotage their own publishing efforts because
they fear they will have to do these things if
they are successful. Terry shows
how to develop a
public persona and hide behind it.
