Course Description:
Natalie J. Damschroder is certainly not the only author to embrace the reality of the pirate's code ( they're more like guidelines than actual rules ), but she was one of the first. Being successful is not about copying another author's path or habits, or following the Laws of Writing. It's about taking in everything, determining your personal truth, and following your own path. In this workshop, she addresses craft, the market, networking, contests, and how best to achieve your own success however you define it.
About the Instructor:
Natalie J. Damschroder started out a single mother whose main goal was independence. After she got that worked out, she became a banker who fell in love with a stripper, then a pregnant woman left with nothing, who ALSO fell in love with a (different) stripper.
Since then, she's been transported to a new dimension that she helped to save twice seduced her favorite actor, had zero-gravity sex on a moon station...oh, and kicked butt as a former NSA operative. And she did all of that in her jammies.
In real life, Natalie has been writing for commercial publication for twelve years. Since publishing her first book with Avid Press in 2000, she has sold seven novels in paperback and e-book, and five novellas and fourteen short stories in e-book, eight of which are also available in a trade paperback collection.
She has been a member of RWA since 1996 and has served much of that time on her local chapter s board of directors. She has also volunteered in many capacities with the national organization. Lucky enough to be writing full time, Natalie now writes romantic adventure and paranormal romantic adventure and plans a dynamic and successful career.
