Upcoming and aspiring writers can get tips on writing from successful authors, meet editors and publishers, and network with their peers. The program is not just limited to books, but will also cover fiction magazines, graphic novels, comics, script writing and poetry. We will discuss new trends such as e-books, print-on-demand books and book trailers. We will also be looking at how art is created and used in these media.
