AMA October 2023: Grant Faulkner
The AMA (Ask-Me-ANYTHING) program is a series of interactive Zoom video meetings on the web where attendees can ask questions pertaining to their writing and publishing projects. A publishing industry professional, the featured expert, would answer these questions in these monthly live meetings.
Due to a scheduling error, the originally scheduled program will now be offered on October 24. Your registration for the Oct 20 AMA carries over to the 24th.
The featured expert for our October 24, 2023 meeting is Grant Faulkner, the Executive Director of National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo), the organization that has inspired many writers over the years.
