How to Choose the Best Writing Resources Right for You

Discover the Hidden Resource Map Every Writer Wishes They Had
Most writers know about critique groups and writing associations, but there's a whole treasure chest of writing communities and resources out there that many never discover.

Join Lorraine Haataia, PhD, founder of Prolific Writers Life and author of Finish Your Book, for an interactive session exploring the four types of writing communities every writer needs at different stages of their journey, plus where to find resources most writers don't even know exist.

Understanding the Different Types of Writing Communities and Resources Available to Writers. Being part of a writing association or group already puts you ahead of most writers, but did you know there's a whole world of additional resources out there that could support your writing in ways you haven't even considered?

In this interactive session, Lorraine Haataia, PhD, founder of Prolific Writers Life and author of Finish Your Book: Plug Into the Power of the Writing Community and Get It Done, will walk through the four kinds of writing communities every writer moves through over the course of a writing life, and where to find the practical, often overlooked resources.

We'll explore:
The Four Quadrants of Writing Community. Fleeting encounters, temporary bonds, enduring connections, and deep rooted kinship, and how to recognize which one you need right now

Beyond community. Resources for legal questions, beta readers, and other support most writers don't know exist

Your own treasure map. An open discussion where you'll share the resources, groups, and tools that have helped you, so everyone leaves with new options to explore

This will be a conversation, not a lecture.

Come ready to share what's worked for you.
Whether you're between projects, deep in revision, or searching for your next writing home, you'll leave with a clearer picture of the resources available to you, and probably a few you didn't know existed. This workshop is sponsored by the Arizona Authors Association and Prolific Writers Life and is open to any writer ready to expand their circle.
