April Letter From the Editor

It's April! Which means Pikes Peak Writers staff and volunteers are scurrying about to put together the final details of Pikes Peak Writers Conference 2014! It's a mad scramble and a lot of hard work, but it's always worth it in the end. Are you as excited as we are?

If you haven't seen them yet, we've been posting faculty Q&A's every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. Want to know what cartoon character your favorite faculty member resembles? What led them to the path they've taken? Or what their words of advice to you might be? Check out the Q&A's!

On Friday, April 18, we'll have a Conference Tips post as our final Countdown to Conference. Have any tips you'd like us to share in the post? Leave them in the comments below!

Are you planning to pitch at conference? The April Write Brain, Tuesday, April 15, will be followed by pitch practice. Come for the conference tips, stay for the pitch practice.

Not going to conference this year? No worries. We've still got our usual great content from our regular columnists for you on our regular posting days (Q&A's are all being posted on our usual "off" days.) There's plenty to read up on that has nothing to do with conference, so stick around!

Whether you're attending the conference or not, have a fabulous writing month and reach for those goals!
