Please join us at this special Member Teleseminar by the Executive Director of NaNoWriMo—National Novel Writing Month to kick start your creativity with Grant Faulkner’s new book Pep Talks for Writers, 52 Insight and Actions to Boost Your Creative Mojo.

He’s going to give us some helpful tips about being creative and sustaining your creativity through first page to “The End.” November is National Novel Writing Month, but Grant and I joke that it’s also NaNoMeM0—National Novel Writing Month because so many memoir writers dive in and dig in during that month to download their story and get a head start on the book they have been wanting to write for years.
