Autumn WriteCon 2017: A Round-Up
“… the dark night of the soul, the pitfalls of piracy and how to craft efficient Facebook ads.” Sabine Sur on WriteCon Zürich’s workshop with David Penny. Claire Doble shares tips from Diccon Bewes’s ‘Big Idea to Bestseller’ Workshop: “News flash: there are no quick wins. There are no shortcuts. This is an industry where it may take up to 12 months for your book to appear on shelves post-completion.”
In Conversation: David Penny
“I think part of the current love affair with history is down to the world we live in now. Our lives are fast, instant, and you are never out of touch. Transport flies us around the globe in hours, communication is constant, and news stories all come at us faster than we can consume them. Speed and instant gratification have become our holy grail.” David Penny speaks with J.J. Marsh.
