One of the great inventions for ongoing learning is the Internet, and another way to be in “class” is through a LIVE teleseminar. I have been able to listen to many great new ideas in writing, business, and healing through the internet, and now here at NAMW, we want to harness this easy to use technique to help memoir writers–you–learn new writing techniques, find out how you can structure your stories, learn about publishing options, and many other useful topics that help memoir writers become successful authors.
This is how it works: you will receive a phone number to use for all the teleseminars through NAMW. You call this phone number and are told to enter your teleconference code and #. That’s all there is to it. You will be on the call with me and the presenter, and others who are able to join us live. All of the information on the call is recorded, including questions asked by the participants.
Your membership benefit teleconferences or teleseminars–they are the same thing–will last about an hour with time during the call for you to ask questions of the presenter. This is a great opportunity to learn from the presenters directly. They will be answering questions that are specific to your needs.
These live calls are then placed as a downloadable archive on the membership part of the site for you to download, copy to a CD, or listen to as often as you like.
That is all there is to it!
Live teleseminars are a terrific way to learn in the comfort of your home. You don’t have to get dressed, you can wear your pajamas, and you don’t have to take notes unless you want to. What is great about it is that you will have access to a lot of people with the knowledge and expertise to help you become a successful and happy memoir writer!
