Award-winning Noblesville author Larry Sweazy can help aspiring novelists stop procrastinating and finally finish those writing projects.

Sweazy

During a free workshop on March 16 sponsored by the Woman’s Press Club of Indiana (WPCI) Education Fund, Sweazy will share proven tips and strategies for finishing projects as well as ideas about time management, building a writer’s toolbox, and how to live life as a writer.

“The hardest part for writers of fiction first novels is finishing what they start,” Sweazy said. “Great ideas tire out. Real life gets in the way. Doubt overtakes the dream.”

Participants are urged to bring pen, paper, and be prepared to write during the interactive workshop.

Sweazy is the critically acclaimed, multiple-award-winning author of 19 novels, one short story collection, and 40 short stories, including the Trusty Dawson, U.S. Deputy Marshal Westerns, the Sonny Burton series, the Josiah Wolfe Westerns, and the Marjorie Trumaine Mysteries.

The workshop will be held from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on Saturday, March 16 in the small auditorium at the College Avenue Library Branch, 4180 N. College Ave., Indianapolis. While the workshop is free, space is limited, so save a seat by emailing beckykillian@ymail.com by 6 p.m. Friday, March 15. The same email can be used by participants to request more information about the workshop.
