Andrew Butters and I were JUST talking about this while recording his podcast. The new episode should be available today, if you want to hear us wax about everything from Native American and Indigenous rights to the writing life.

Whatcha Up To?:
The first writer’s conference I ever attended, The Authors of the Flathead hold a special place in my heart. Their conference was where I was first introduced to Chris La Tray, and I couldn’t be more grateful. This weekend, I’ll be learning from authors like Shelley Read, Debbie Burke, and Robert Petrone. You don’t need a degree or a published book to attend, and I’d love to see you there!
My local library has been wanting me to do more writing workshops, but it’s hard to schedule, because our library is (thankfully) extremely full of programming already. We’ve agreed an online workshop might work best, especially in the harder month of February when people are starting to get cabin fever. There will be four sessions, all free and all online via Zoom, and anyone can attend. You can register to attend and have Zoom automatically remind you by checking out my Events Page or finding the events on Facebook.
Want a chance to have your work featured on my website, social media, Patreon and Substack accounts? Become a supporter and you’ll have access to my monthly timed writing prompt. Send me your unedited, timed writing response for your chance to be featured! Find the September prompt on Patreon or Substack.

Join us on Zoom October 15, 2025 at 6pm MT to discuss The Thing Around Your Neck by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.
