Has winter got you down? If you live in the Treasure Valley
in Southwest Idaho, it may have. Be assured, Spring 2017 is just around the
corner. That means the Second Annual ICAN Spring Writers’ Symposium and Writing Contest is also just around the corner. If you are thinking about writing, but
don’t know where to begin. We can help. Perhaps you already write, but need
assistance with publishing. We can help.
Why does the Idaho Creative Authors Network sponsor events
such as this one?
We recognized a need to bring affordable and convenient
writing opportunities to the Treasure Valley. There is a lot of talent and
experience right here. We strive to bring those with publishing and marketing
experience in contact with those who are just starting out in their writing careers by sponsoring local events on a semi-annual basis.
The Spring Writers’ Symposium and Writing Contest includes
both writing instruction and writing contests for published and non-published
authors. The symposium promises to be packed with information and interaction
for beginning and established writers seeking to improve their writing and
marketing skills. A networking luncheon
will give attendees the opportunity to interact with fellow writers and
presenters who include Author and Texas Writing Academy Participant, Carol Green Kjar, along with ICAN authors JoEllen Claypool, Carol Green, Phyllis
Vavold Nettleton, and Sheila Eismann. Workshop topics include Strengthening
Your Writing, Manuscript Development, Cover Design, and much more. Come prepared to engage in a writing activity
to implement what you have learned! The
day caps off with an Awards Ceremony for winners of the writing contests.

from 9:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M. at the Parma High School Commons Room, 137 Panther
