Writing is a form of art; everyone will have a different opinion of what is good and what is bad. Even Van Gogh was harshly ridiculed and scrutinized in his time; it took years before his talent was recognized. So what if you’ve been tirelessly shopping around your cat’s memoirs and the publishers are ignoring you? Don’t give up! Maralys Wills, author of Damn the Rejections, is hosting a workshop that might ease your frustration. It’s titled “The Bumpy Road to Getting Published.” Join other struggling writers—artists, if you will—and gain some insight from someone whose been there and has triumphed. Do it for Fluffy Muffins—the world needs to know his story.
