Top 10 Reasons You Should Sign up for Social Media Tutoring at Midwest Writers
by Cathy Day
All MWW13 attendees are eligible for a free, 50-minute Social Media Tutoring Session.
Here’s why you should sign up:
-
It’s absolutely free. FREE!
-
No other writers’ conference offers a Social Media Lab with hands-on assistance. (If I’m wrong about this, please let me know.)
-
As a writer, you are the owner of a small business called being yourself.
-
As a professional-type person, it’s your responsibility to educate yourself about technology.
-
Since technology is constantly changing, this means that that process of educating yourself will never stop happening.
-
There’s no point in whining about this. Besides, learning new things is actually kind of fun.
-
If you sign up, you’ll be helping a young person get real-world experience, which is part of the mission of Ball State University.
-
I applied for a grant from the Discovery Group in Muncie to hire this highly skilled group of Ball State students as interns. Don’t feel guilty about pumping them for knowledge. They’re getting paid!
-
The tutors will leave the session feeling empowered: “Hey! This stuff I do for fun can actually be useful and help people!”
-
You will leave the session feeling empowered: “Hey! Look who’s walking around with a bit more swagger? Me.”
So if you’re coming to Midwest Writers Workshop 2013, sign up!
