I just finished the three day Surrey International Writers Conference. To say I was inspired and encouraged would be an understatement. I’m still processing. It was the third time I’ve gone, not consecutively as too much of a good thing is too much of a good thing. The first time I went, I was overwhelmed. The second time, the points about craft started to sink in. This third time, I discovered how much I knew. To sum up my take on this conference, I’m citing Jane Espenson (screenwriter of Buffy, the Vampire Slayer):
THE LONGER YOU WRITE, THE SIMPLER IT GETS.
Happy writing!
I love that you posted a quote by Jane Espensen. Happy you had a nice time at the conference too xo
Hi Diana, I think Jane Espenson is absolutely right. This is even more true if we talk about writing in a foreign language (as it is in my case).
Rob, thanks for visiting. You do very well writing in a foreign language.
