Or is it convoluted and muddled? If it\u2019s the latter, do you know how to fix it?<\/p>\n<p>Bill Briscoe, our November speaker, will share things he\u2019s learned through his own writing process that may be helpful to you. He encourages you to bring a couple of pages of your work to check for clarity as he goes through his presentation.<\/p>\n<p>His lovely wife, Liz, will also share what she\u2019s done to increase his social media presence that may spark ideas. After all, if you\u2019ve put a book out, what good is it if no one knows about it? So many busy authors overlook the importance of a social media platform and of studying various ways to market.<\/p>\n<p>Author of the successful Pepperman Mystery Series, Bill Briscoe, grew up in the oil refinery town of Phillips in the Texas Panhandle. After a career spent working for a major insurance company, he turned his focus to writing the stories that had been rumbling around in his head for years. He\u2019s published the first two mysteries in the series thus far with a new one set to release. When he\u2019s not writing, you can find him watching baseball and football.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Clarity in Writing by Bill Briscoe Is your story clear and the reader able to understand what\u2019s going on?
