The National League of American Pen Women, a professional organization for women artists, composers, and writers, promotes development of the creative talents of professional women in the arts. In 2010, the Honolulu branch will present its biennial writers' conference. Details to follow.

"What I learn from exposure to people in other arts weaves into my work. I pick up nuances and color that enhance a poem, article, or story. It's the rubbing elbows with people who have talents different from yours that helps you grow in your craft."
--Dorothy Winslow Wright, internationally published poet & writer.

Mahalo to all who attended the 2010 Biennial Writers’ Conference at Punahou School. All that enthusiasm, coaching and camaraderie will surely spawn some inspired writing!

Special thanks to Lisa Yee, our keynote speaker, who is as entertaining as she is talented. Conference presenters served up a rich array of well attended sessions: Autobiographic Fiction, Comedy Writing, The Art of Character Development, Editing Your Work, Fiction and a Sense of Place, Magazine Writing, Memoir, Newspaper Writing, Playwriting, Slam Poetry, Story as Life Study, and Travel. Now, what will we do for the 2012 conference?
