Adult Writing Workshop - Career Planning

Next date: Thursday, November 21, 2024 | 06:30 PM to 07:30 PM

Authors, get ready for the next chapter in your career!

Are you a planner or do you just go with the flow when it comes to your writing career? Do you have big goals but aren't sure how to make them a reality? Often, writers focus their goal-setting on works produced, or on scheduling promotions for their next launch. But there is so much more to your growth and development as a writer than your next book or writing project.

In this session, we'll take creative career planning to a new level as we discuss creative goal-setting and how to build the right skills at the right time so that you are ready to take advantage of opportunities that come your way. This presentation is part of our business-focused sessions in partnership with Global Entrepreneurship Week North Texas.

As a destination for discovery, your Fort Worth Public Library is a location for learners of any age. We designed this program for adults.
