Howard County February Chapter Meeting
Hello fellow writers. It's time to Leap into Writing.
Our speaker for February is Cecelia Dowdy. Her information is below. She will be speaking on writing Christian romance. We will discuss the differences in writing Christian romance versus regular romance.
CECELIA DOWDY is a world traveler who has been an avid reader for as long as she can remember. When she first read Christian fiction, she felt called to write for the genre. She loves to read, write, and bake desserts in her spare time. Cecelia loves to help other authors and she runs a popular book review blog entitled Cecelia’s Christian Fiction Blog (www.ceceliadowdy.blogspot.com). She also enjoys giving other African-American authors exposure, so she runs a website entitled Black Christian Fiction (www.blackchristianfiction.com). This website contains links for many African-American Christian Fiction authors. Cecelia currently resides with her husband and young son in Maryland.
Date: February 16
Time: 7 to 9 p.m.
