Writing and the Creative Lens Presented by E. H. Kindred Author Artist Graphic Designer

What is a writer, anyway? ●A way of seeing the world ●Being different ●Needing to write in order to think ●Forming an identity through writing ●Regular interaction with art

Approaching a Story ●Working with the Muse ●Write at the pace the story arrives ●Forget the outline ●Write non-linearly ●Let the story be what it wants to be ●Edit later

Personal Pacing ●Set a reasonable daily word count ●Don’t sabotage yourself ●Just say NO to NaNoWriMo

Not everyone is a writer...and that’s ok. Everyone has the potential to be a writer.

The Importance of People ●Observe and study people ●Look for stories in everyday details ●Details are what make people alive and unique ●People READ

What to do with your words ●You MUST share them ●Words reflect pieces of ourselves, and enable us to share our minds with others ●Share your perspective with the world
