Thank you everyone for attending #Ch1Con this year! We know it was a bit chaotic due to the hybrid nature of the con, but we had a great time! Attendees, keep an eye out for an email with conference materials and info about your prizes!
Two different approaches to writing for prompts from @CThompsWrites and from @halcyonpen: brainstorming and taking ideas from your life and passions, or procrastinating until an idea arrives to you. Guess which one Ch21Con director @ArielKalati tends to go for #Ch1Con
@CThompsWrites @halcyonpen When considering criticism, remember to be true to yourself! Good point #Ch1Con
@CThompsWrites @halcyonpen Advice from @CThompsWrites : "Be discerning about whose advice you take to heart, and whose advice you take on with you to revision" #Ch1Con
Interesting to hear about the academic side of creative writing in this panel with @CThompsWrites and @halcyonpen! #Ch1Con
"You're allowed to push back on your editor... It's your book" - @dancingofpens' discussion of self-advocacy in publishing is excellent #Ch1Con
Discussing the importance of reaching out and asking questions in the publishing industry, as long as you're respectful of people's boundaries. Great part of @dancingofpens' keynote! #Ch1Con
SO real that young writers tend to think they need to be published, or published at a certain age, to be valid. @dancingofpens is bringing up some very relatable feelings #Ch1Con
Love seeing that picture of FULL DISCLOSURE on the shelves in a bookstore! That IS the coolest thing to see #Ch1Con
Even those of us who aren't published yet can totally relate to that feeling of disappointment if you don't make every single writing goal you want, so @dancingofpens is hitting on some important things to remember when writing #Ch1Con
What is school/writing/life balance, you ask?
Honestly… none of us are sure.
@dancingofpens recommends lists. And forgiving yourself for not being perfect ❤️ #ch1con
The amount of pets in the #Ch1Con Zoom call, both cats and dogs, is iconic. Should we bring cats and dogs to future in-person conferences? Probably not but that would be fun

Advice from @ananyad12's "being part of the industry" section: networking is about making GENUINE connections with other authors. Agreed! #Ch1Con
"What I will emphasize about this industry is that perseverance is number one"- good advice on publishing from @ananyad12 #ch1con
"Recommended for querying: a community to support you in the process"- @ananyad12 yes! we love supporting writing communities #Ch1Con
Some excellent advice: make a Literary Agent Priority List!
List agent traits and how important they are to YOU! #ch1con
