Dear Debbie,
I am writing to you asking for a bit of help, communication-wise. I know you teach writing, and was hoping you could share this around. This year at SoonerCon (June 15-17) we have a two day writers workshop. Our clinician this year is World Fantasy Award
winner Peter Beagle ("The Last Unicorn"; "The Handmaiden's Tale"). Participants submit an advance manuscript, up to 5000 words, and get two sessions with Peter; a one on one, and a group talk. Peter's business agent will also speak to that aspect of the business
during the group session. For folks breaking into writing, it's a great opportunity to work with one of the finest in the business. Cost of the workshop is $35; that does not include a convention membership. Both workshop and convention memberships are available
through the convention website,
www.soonercon.com
If someone's interested, they can write to me, or to on-site co-ordinator Cyndi Hagood (CC'd on this message). Membership is very limited (max 8 participants) and will sell out, so I hope some of your students will take advantage of this opportunity. Thanks
so much, and see you at the con!
