Upcoming Events

I wanted to share two events on my calendar that might interest you.

On March 13 I begin a 6 week class on Tuesday evenings from 6:30-8:30. Crafting Characters that Connect will meet on the main campus of Central Piedmont Community College. The course focuses on the basic principles involved in writing compelling, three-dimensional characters for short and long narratives. Students will examine character depth and growth, write dialogue, learn to identify a character’s wants and needs and complete a character’s autobiography. For more information and to register, go to the CPCC website. 

On March 16-17 I will be participating in the fourth annual Write 2 Ignite Conference in Greenville, S.C. On Saturday I have the privilege of being one of the keynote speakers; you can find  more information about “Humility in the Marketplace” here.


There are a number of great workshops to choose from.  Among them, Joyce Hostetter and I will co-lead a workshop, Using Life Experiences to Pump Up Your Writing on Friday evening and on Saturday I’ll be leading a mini-version of my CPCC class and cover the highlights of Crafting Characters that Connect. 


Write 2 Ignite is holding a special contest until January 31st. Check it out for the opportunity to win a critique as well as Terry Burn‘s book, A Writer’s Survival Guide to Publication.  And if finances are a problem, make sure you check out the scholarships which are being offered. 


If you have any questions about either of these events, feel free to leave me a comment or write to me at cbaldwin6@carolina.rr.com


Hope to see you at one of these events!
