Two weeks from today (November 2nd) has been marked on my calendar for weeks. It’s the day of our one-day writing conference: “Storytelling: Bringing the Past to Life.”

If you’re a Vancouver area writer, you’ll want to give this a look. Here is the delectable lineup:
9:00 a.m. – “The Drama of Biblical Fiction” by David Kitz (president of The Word Guild).
10:00 a.m. “Writing the Play Tolkein” by Ron Reed (eminent playwright and founder of Pacific Theatre, Vancouver).
11:15 a.m. “Twentieth Century Historical Fiction and Memoir” by Rose Seiler Scott.
1:30 p.m. “How to Save Your Family History through Short Stories” by Jim Martens.
2:30 p.m. “Writing Historical Musicals” by Allen Desnoyers, composer of “Pier 21 – The Musical”
The day winds up with an evening performance of “Pier 21 – The Musical” (ticketed separately).
