Paula Munier is clearly experienced in the written arts, and has a gift for channeling that knowledge toward coaching and orienting hopeful writers. Paula may be firm in her advice, but she sweetens the medicine with doses of clear logic and insight, and I trusted her judgement. What’s more, Paula is a likable individual, and I am a better writer for having made her acquaintance. May she be well paid for her efforts.
Our group was composed of kind and patient writers who, by and large, sustained the rhythm and pace of daily sessions by listening attentively to the discussions and keeping opinions to themselves. These were people truly making the effort to absorb and assimilate the expertise to which they were being exposed. Let’s hope they all continue with their work and gain success.
Overall, I was very pleased with this conference. The experience was more workshop and hands on than a mere lecture series. Taking NY Write to Pitch seriously, jumping into the pre-event assignments, persevering through hours and hours of hands-on exercises, four days of pitching, re-working and re-pitching, and getting a sense of validation, made this conference a VERY good value for the money. The whole experience was well worth the price.
