Get Organised, Get Writing – Sydney Course
Writers not only have to write – we juggle family and friends, other work commitments, promotional efforts, social media and running our own business, not to mention finding time to relax and refill the creative well.
Award-winning fiction author, Paula Roe, will take you through goal setting using the SMART method to achieve your writing needs: we will discuss what you want to write and how to plan it into your day, how to write effective goals to get words on the page, which writing methods are best for you, and how to avoid getting derailed with everyday life interruptions.
After this course, you will be organised and can start doing what you do best...writing!
- Paula Roe is a regular Borders Books bestseller and one of only five Australian authors who write for Harlequin Desire, a line published by Harlequin Enterprises, the biggest romance publisher in the world. Harlequin books go out to over 28 countries and are translated into 28 languages in 114 international markets on six continents. Before publication, Paula’s writing won and placed in various contests, including Wisconsin Romance Writers Fabulous Five Silver Quill, Magnolia State Dixie First Chapter, Romance Writers of Australia’s Emerald Award and the Valerie Parv Award.
