This isn’t just any live stream—it’s a chance to connect, learn, and engage with us and an incredible panel of authors at one of the most vibrant literary events of the year: the Brooklyn Book Festival!
We are proud to share that this will be our third consecutive year participating in this renowned virtual festival, and this year promises to be our most exciting collaboration yet!
Join us for an interactive discussion, "Fail Hard, Fail Often: Switching Genres, Audiences, and Processes in Fiction Writing," where we’ll team up with the amazing folks at Queer Indie to explore the often-overlooked yet powerful role that failure plays in shaping successful writers.
Why You Should Tune In:
Writing can be a tumultuous journey. Whether you're a seasoned author or just starting out, we've all experienced moments of self-doubt, rejection, and the growing pains of trying something new. This panel will dive into these topics head-on. We’ll discuss:
🔹 Learning from failure and overcoming rejection: Discover how setbacks can fuel your success.
🔹 Adopting new writing methods: Insights on switching up your creative process and why it can make all the difference.
🔹 Switching genres and audiences: What happens when you decide to pivot to a new genre or write for a different demographic? Hear firsthand experiences from authors who’ve successfully made the leap!
🔹 Building and evolving your author identity: In a world where branding can be as important as craft, we’ll talk about how to navigate the challenge of continually evolving as a writer.
