SHAWNEE—More than 70 well-known writers, entertainers, and scholars with Oklahoma roots are preparing to be in Shawnee, Okla. on November 6 and 7 to present 40 programs for hundreds of reading enthusiasts and aspiring writers. The fourth biennial Red Dirt Book Festival will be held at the Heart of Oklahoma Expo Center on Friday, November 6, and at Oklahoma Baptist University on Saturday, November 7.

Imagine Oklahoma is the conversational theme for the 2009 festival, and will be illustrated by several featured presenters who help the world image Oklahoma through their work on television.

The featured author for the 2009 festival is Billie Letts, best known for her debut novel, Where the Heart Is which became a York Times Best Seller, an Oprah Book Club selection, and a major motion picture. Letts has written three more novels, all with Oklahoma settings and characters. Her latest work, Made in the USA, was published in 2008. Letts will speak at OBU’s Raley Chapel at 11 a.m. Saturday, November 7. Copies of her novels will be available for purchase and autographing following the presentation.

Press Release: The Freshman Writer

New Website makes it easier for beginning writers to generate ideas, find inspiration, and get published!
I want to write but don’t know what to write about. I have great ideas, how can I get them on paper? I want information on how to get started in the freelance writing world, but I have no clue know where to look. I’ve sent out several emails with no response, help!
Sound familiar?
Heiddi Zalamar is a New York-based freelance writer and therapist who asked all of these questions of other writers along her way. Asking them all the time was frustrating and she wanted to find one place with all the answers to those questions. Thus, the birth of The Freshman Writer came to fruition.
The Freshman Writer was conceived when Heiddi noticed on several online writing groups the same questions repeatedly. Recently, she noted that many writers started sentences with “I’m a newbie and I need help!” Heiddi started a web log (blog) for new, freshman, writers to fulfill that need. For three years, Heiddi has published many articles with advice and help from more experienced writers.
Heiddi realized that there were few websites dedicated specifically to freshman writers looking for ways to write and publish works.
“For Freshman Writers, it’s the place to be”, reads the caption at the top of the site. With articles, exercises, book reviews and more! Heiddi wants to support and guide Freshman Writers from idea inception to publication.
There is too much information online and in print for freshman writers to sort through. With book and website reviews, freshman writers can get the information they need without having to waste valuable time and money.
If you have questions about freelance writing and you don’t know where to start, go to http://thefreshmanwriter.wordpress.com. Explore the Freshman Writer to find out how you can get writing and published. Please direct questions to Heiddi at HZalamar@gmail.com and she will respond promptly!
