Debra Butterfield

Debra ButterfielDebra is the author of Carried by Grace: a Guide for Mothers of Victims of Sexual Abuse. She has contributed to numerous anthologies as well as magazines that include CBN.com, Susie, Live, The Vision, and On Course online. She is a freelance editor and the editor for CrossRiver Media Group publishing. She lives in Missouri.

At the 2016 conference Debra will be leading the Making Scrivener Work for You workshop. This is a workshop for the beginning and intermediate Scrivener user. Attendees will learn the basics of importing files and creating documents as well as how to personalize the Binder and labels, use the Inspector, take snapshots to preserve their work, and more.

Our recent interview with Debra.

KAT:  How did you get into writing?

DEBRA:  I’ve wanted to be a writer since I was a preteen. As an adult I tried to do a correspondence about writing for children, but life got in the way. It wasn’t until I was 45 years old that I began to pursue a career in writing by applying for and gaining a junior copywriter position with Focus on the Family.

KAT:  What do you see as the greatest take away from your workshop and why?

DEBRA:  Realizing the great flexibility of Scrivener and how you can mold it into the best platform for all your writing projects.

KAT:  Who will get the most out of your workshop?

DEBRA:  Beginning to intermediate users of Scrivener.

KAT:  If you could share only one piece of information with a writer, what would it be?

DEBRA:  Write, write, write, because that is how you’ll discover your voice.

KAT:  What are you working on now?

DEBRA:  I’m working on a novella about an unassuming little country church, the people who find refuge there during a blizzard, and the miracle of faith that God provides for the weary travelers.

Rose Zediker

Rose ZedikerMulti-published author and RITA finalist, Rose Ross Zediker, writes contemporary and historical inspirational romances and has over one hundred publishing credits in the Christian magazine genre for children and adults. Her titles have appeared on ECPA bestseller lists and been finalists for the RITA, National Reader’s Choice, Booksellers Best and Book Buyers Best award contests.

At the 2016 conference Rose will be leading the Writing on Assignment for Christian Children’s Market workshop. Children’s stories run through your head, but where do you submit them. Learn the basics of how to find work-for-hire markets in the Christian children’s genre and how to put together an audition package for your target market.

Our recent interview with Rose.

KAT:  What do you see as the greatest take away from your workshop and why?

ROSE:  My workshop is about work for hire publishing. Sometimes authors neglect to try this publishing avenue because they don’t understand it. I hope to debunk the myths surrounding work for hire publishing and expose the attendees to another avenue that may lead to publication.

KAT:  What book are you currently reading?

ROSE:  I am reading A Mountain of Mystery published by Guideposts. BTW – the mystery series books that Guideposts publishes are work for hire!

KAT:  If you could share only one piece of information with a writer, what would it be?

ROSE:  Although it is okay to aspire to have a career like your favorite author, absolutely, do not compare yourself and your work to others writers. Why? It can debilitate your writing and your self-esteem. And most of the time you aren’t comparing apples to apples. It’s doubtful that you’ll have the same education, the same type of family life, the same number of children, live in the same location, have the same sleeping habits, etc. All of those things (and more!) affects your writing and your writing time.

KAT:  What are your goals for 2016?

ROSE:  I am such a firm believer in goal setting! I set several goals each year. This year my main focus is writing a cozy mystery and preparing the proposal package so my agent can shop it around.

Learn some of the best practices for writing nonfiction and move toward publication.

Our recent interview with RJ.

KAT:  Why is your workshop important?

RJ:  My workshop is important because every reader loves a good story. In order to make our nonfiction attractive to editors and readers, we need to use creative techniques. By Fueling Our Nonfiction with Creativity, we have a better chance of selling nonfiction articles and impacting readers.

KAT:  What book are you currently reading?

RJ:  I’m always reading 2-3 books at the same time. Currently, I’m reading “Dakota” by Kathleen Norris, “Ephesians” by the Apostle Paul, “Rising Strong” by Brene Brown and “Eat, Pray, Love” by Elisabeth Gilbert.

KAT:  How did you hear about Wordsowers?

RJ:  Several years ago, my friend Sally Jadlow told me about the Wordsowers Conference. After I attended that first year, I was hooked.

KAT:  How did you hear about Wordsowers?

RJ:  Besides my weekly blog posts at www.RJThesman.net, I write a bimonthly column for the “Johnson’s County Gazette” and a monthly article for www.Trochia.org. I also write two blogs at work – www.GWHope.org and www.StartingOverSingle.com. And … I’m starting on a book of essays titled “Sometimes They Forget” based on my blog posts for caregivers of Alzheimer’s patients.

Erica Vetsch

Erica VetschErica is a transplanted Kansan now residing in Minnesota. She loves history and reading, and is blessed to be able to combine the two by writing historical fiction set in the American West. Whenever she’s not following flights of fancy in her fictional world, she’s the company bookkeeper for the family lumber business, mother of two terrific teens, wife to a man who is her total opposite and soul-mate, and avid museum patron. For more information visit Erica’s website: http://onthewritepath.blogspot.com/

At the 2016 conference Erica will be leading the Plotting Your Story Using a Plot Board workshop. Writing a novel is an enormous undertaking with complexities. Using a plot board can simplify and distill your story, allowing you to see the big picture without being overwhelmed. We’ll explore story structure, balancing point-of-view scenes and how to get the story from the plot board to the page.

Our recent interview with Erica.

KAT:  Who will get the most out of your workshop?

ERICA:  The Plot Board workshop will benefit new writers who are overwhelmed by the enormity of tackling an entire novel, writers who don’t usually plot but need to create a quick synopsis for a proposal or editor’s request, and experience writers who would like to try something new.

KAT:  Who is your favorite fictional character and why?

ERICA:  I have two current favorites. Sherlock Holmes, because he is fascinating, and because he is so unique, he’s become a trope. And Jack Reacher, who is absolutely relentless, capable, and fearless.

KAT:  How did you hear about Wordsowers?

ERICAMy dear friend Mary Connealy told me about this conference and how many wonderful people she’d met as a result of attending.

KAT:  What are you working on now?

ERICA:  I’m the lead author on a novella collection: 7 Brides for 7 Texans. Seven novellas featuring seven brothers who must marry within the next 12 months or lose their inheritance. My job, in addition to writing one of the novellas, is to oversee the continuity of the series.

  • Turning Personal Experience into a Devotional Message (beginning through advanced writers) —A workshop focused on the three essential elements in an effective devotional. Included will be information about the devotional market in general as well as specialized writing for The Upper Room, the world’s largest daily devotional guide.
  • Style: The Key to Excellence in Writing —Do you want to write with such sparkle and verve that you’ll knock the socks off editors?  Do you want them to be falling all over themselves to publish your submission and clamor for your future submissions? A crash course in excellent writing for any genre.

Our recent interview with Susan.

KAT:  How did you get into editing?

SUSAN:  As an English major in college, of course I was always intending to write “The Great American Novel.” When a stay-at-home mom and pregnant with my third child, I started writing that novel as a catharsis while going through a major crisis with my parents’ marriage. When the crisis abated, my motivation to finish that novel ebbed as well. At the same time, I discovered magazine-feature writing as a way to help bring in money to support our family. A year later, due to rumors that the company my husband was working for was closing down, I sought and secured a position as a writer and editor for a Christian psychological institute and later began teaching English full-time at Biola University. Soon after my husband’s job took us to Nashville (and a teaching position at Lipscomb University), the sale of our house in California fell through and I had to seek a second full-time position—this time as an editorial assistant for The Upper Room. (When I answered the ad, all I knew was that it was a part-time secretarial position at The United Methodist Board of Discipleship.) Before long, I was Assistant Editor and then Associate Editor (all the while continuing to teach full time).

Minoring in magazine production in college, all I really wanted to be was an editor, but I didn’t know how to become one. I knew how to become a college professor (since both my parents were). Yet, for over 20 years now, I have worked as an editor. Long after I had put that dream aside, God gave me the desires of my heart. (See Psalm 37:4.)

KAT:  What do you see as the greatest take away from your workshop and why?

SUSAN:  The motivation and skills to write an excellent devotional and to improve a conferee’s writing in every genre.

KAT:  Who will get the most out of your workshop?

SUSAN:  Anyone who wants to write excellently and to reach an audience of millions all over the world.

KAT: What book are you currently reading?

SUSAN:  The Language of Bees by Laurie R. King.

KAT:  If you could share only one piece of information with a writer, what would it be?

SUSAN:  While writing and publishing a book sounds very appealing, don’t forget the many advantages to writing for magazines before, during, and after the book writing.
