Do you have the U-Factor?

In today’s fast paced world customisation has become a  key word. All companies are trying to modify their products to meet the needs of as many individual customers as they can. It is quite possible that one day we will have products that have been modified to meet the need of each individual customer.

I am not going to backtrack on anything that I have said in those posts,  but in this post I will play the devil’s advocate and try to build up a case to prove that blogging can actually be detrimental to you as a writer.

Not possible, you say. Read on then is what I say!

Wanna attend a Writers Conference?

I have always wanted to attend a writer’s conference, but living and working in a small, remote town has ensured that my wish to attend one remains just that – a wish.

Today, however, as I was browsing the Internet I came across the Annual Muse Online Writers Conference. The site claims to be the only free conference of its kind, and further adds, No matter where you live, what you write, at what point you are in your writing career, you’ll find a workshop that fits your needs during our week long conference”
