Are You Afraid of Six Days of Writing at the Beach?

Melinda Palacio

The Santa Barbara Writers Conference

Santa Barbara

By popular demand, Lida Sideris and I are joining forces to address all your writing needs and fears at the Santa Barbara Writers Conference. Last year, we taught to an overflowing crowd. It's no surprise that writers have all kinds of fears from fear of failure to fear of success to fear that someone will actually read words that they have written. I'm very excited to bring back this popular workshop. Every year I look forward to the Santa Barbara Writers Conference. Being an expert in overcoming a variety of fears, including fear of heights and fear of singing in public, I am here to help writers overcome their fear. My teaching partner, Lida, is one of the most pleasant people you'll ever meet, a ray of sunshine you'll be happy to learn from her. Everyone has about a month to clear their calendar and take time to write your book and get it done. Join us for six days of writing in the New York Time's number 3 top destination of 2019: Santa Barbara. As founder Barnaby Conrad used to say, you will not leave the conference as the same person. Transform, write, and Enjoy. June 16-21, 2019.
