From Feedback to Fabulous!

Author and educator, Suzanne Morgan Williams, will present ways to interpret editor and agent responses, and critique group and reader feedback. Whether evaluating rejections, diving into revisions, or preparing for an editorial call – every writer needs to weigh peer and professional responses. After years of writing, revising, mentoring, and self-editing she’s learned a few tricks. No matter where you are in your writing journey, she’ll give suggestions for evaluating what works for you and what to ignore. She’ll share specific techniques and benchmarks for deciding on your response and next steps. Hand-out provided.
