Body Language for Writers: How to Wow an Audience at a Reading
On Thursday, Sept. 2, 6:05 p.m. – 7 p.m. Pacific Time (9:05 – 10 p.m. Eastern), author Sharon Sayler will lead a presentation and discussion of how to apply her body language know-how to our public work as writers–which is to say as readers and discussants of our own work. This event is open to the public.
“Words are only a small part of communication,” Sharon Sayler writes in her new book What Your Body Says (and how to master the message). This may not be good news for writers; after all, words are our medium. And words on the page have to do a great deal without the help of non-verbal cues. Of course, inserting descriptions of non-verbal cues into dialog is an important part of crafting strong fiction, but that’s another blog. “Your non-verbals,” Sayler writes, “can actually destroy or produce the results you want.” For writers on the page, this may be advice we wish to ignore, but when we take the stage, knowing how to present ourselves–and our work–could make a real difference to our success… Join Sharon and Elizabeth at Book Writing World Thursday evening by going to http://bookwritingworld.com/ and join the mail list (the blue and white box on the right hand column)
Please NOTE down the date and time and JOIN OUR MAILING LIST NOW and before the event, we will send you a link to the talk, which will take place through video conferencing over the web.
