Hey folks! Time for the weekly news update!
First and foremost, let’s talk about LTUE really quick. LTUE, or Life, The Universe, and Everything is February 13-15th at the Provo Utah Marriot. Not only will I be there, but I’ll be there with paperback copies of Shadow of an Empire, Axtara – Banking and Finance, and the newly release Axtara – Magic and Mischief.
LTUE is a fantastic time, and if you’ve never been but have the drive of an aspiring writer within you, there’s no other con like it, and it absolutely needs to be on your list. This is a con for writers, about writing, given by writers. Not just that, but at its core, that’s what LTUE has always been. There will be editors from publishing companies there to offer feedback on manuscripts to those who brought them. There will panels on a plethora of subjects, the majority of them writing focused, everything from how to start your work to how to bring in new character to how to polish it, find a cover, and get it out before the world.
It’s truly an awesome experience. I’ve known many writers over the years that have attended LTUE and been thrilled with the experience, finding so many panels that they were able to apply to their writing that they couldn’t even attend them all. Time and time again I’ve seen writers leave LTUE going “That’s what I need to do!” going home to change their draft or make a tweak to their story, and then deliver a finished version that’s improved thanks to what they heard at LTUE.
It’s awesome. If you at all have the chance, you should absolutely attend. If so, I’ll see you there! Oh, and if you bring your copy of Magic and Mischief, I’ll be ready and waiting to sign it!
Now, let’s talk about two more things: Axtara 3, and what comes next. Hit the jump!
