SUMMARY:Writer’s Group
DESCRIPTION:The writing/editing group will move into some more complex strategies to consider when editing our work. These strategies will include character development\, pace and momentum\, plot and structure\, and suspense and tension. We will also review showing and telling and have a look at transitions\, both between paragraphs and chapters. We will discuss how these editing skills are all applicable to writing your family history.

These conferences were some of the largest genealogy events held in Western Canada. Claire has published several articles in Canadian genealogy journals and was awarded the Marion Keffer Prize by the Ontario Genealogical Society in 2002 for best original article. Currently\, Claire is chairperson of both the Public Education and Library Committees for the Kelowna & District Genealogical Society and is the Online Parish Clerk for three parishes in Dorset\, England.  In her other life\, Claire manages her husband’s international safety consulting company\, enjoys hiking and spends countless hours in her garden in Kelowna\, British Columbia. \n  \nBy Zoom
