11am: Pamper Your Muse

How to get your creative mind to talk to you. How writing prompts, mind maps, creative dates with yourself, tarot and storytelling cards can help you tap the muse.

While I am not an official participant of the Cedar Hills Crossing Powell’s Sci-Fi Authorfest 11, I will be there with Josh Vogt who is an official participant.

Meet Jennifer Brozek

I had the pleasure of meeting Chaz at LepreCon. I enjoy his artwork and his passion.

The tarot deck will be divided into 4 courts of 13 cards each. Each of the cards will be a character...
