Why is DFWCon so good? It has a variety of workshops, for both fiction and nonfiction authors. Registration includes 10 minutes in front of an agent or acquisitions editor to pitch your book. And the vibe is really upbeat. The tl;dr: great workshops and positive attitudes.

Home from DFWCon writers' conference in Hurst, TX for two weeks & I'm still amazed at how good this conference is year after year. If you can come to DFWCon, then I highly recommend it. And if you can't come here, I strongly advise you find a good conference you can go to (near you or online).

Full disclosure. This was supposed to be an outfit of the day but I messed up the audio 😅 But @kristinajusttypes.bsky.social and I looked cute and were having fun, so reframing 😁

Image of slide from Everything the Muppets Taught Me About Writing. Take your Premise seriously. You create the emotional reality of your story. Extended mood should be broken now and then. Sharply drawn, simple characters are timeless. Fun scenes can be their own justification. You DON'T have to outsmart the audience. You DO have to give them something interesting and engaging. Subtext is for cowards. Never be afraid to end in an explosion!

Had the chance to hear @as-king.bsky.social @DFWCon--what a great speaker! Bought her book Pick the Lock and started reading it today

Huge shoutout to @as-king.bsky.social who not only is the first to ever win the Michael L. Printz Medal TWICE, but also produced the first ANTHOLOGY to ever win this award! What an exciting achievement in literary history, and so well deserved! 🎉

Thirteen years ago, I had a solid writing schedule: 2000 words every day. I went to conferences and had friends who talked shop with me.

Now, I write 500 words most days and I haven't been to DFWCon in like 8 years. I don't have writing partners anymore.

I'm pushing on, but it's hard.
