SUMMARY:AutismBC Goes: Editing Skills for Self Advocate Writers
DESCRIPTION:Editing Skills for Self-Advocates: from First Draft to Publication\nRevising advocacy writing is so much more than just grammar and spelling. Crafting an impactful piece is as much about the mechanics of writing as it is skillfully putting words to your most challenging emotions\, making difficult experiences relatable\, and requesting inclusion from a compassion-fatigued world\, all while your entire community watches.  Even with the first draft on paper\, it can feel like an overwhelming task. \nNew and seasoned writers are welcomed to join Lisa Hislop\, professional editor and autistic self-advocate\, to learn about taking a piece of writing from first draft to publication. You will learn some great tools for making your writing and revision process a lot more efficient: \n\nHow to undermine the imposter\nWriting skills for the self-advocate\nSelf-advocacy skills for the writer\nThe revision checklist\n\nThe evening will include a presentation\, some quick reference resources\, and time for questions. \nRegistration is required: Sign up Here \nAn email with the private Zoom link will be emailed closer to the event.   \n  \nAbout the Facilitator: \nLisa Hislop is a professional fiction editor who translates her knowledge of crafting compelling fiction into her work with self-advocates. She is a member of Editors Canada\, holds a BA in French literature from UBC\, and completed the Certificate in Editing at SFU. Lisa is a late-diagnosed autistic and has lived with a spinal cord injury for more than 20 years. She believes that books and writing need to be inclusive of every kind of disability and brain. You can find her advocacy work at bookneurd.com\, and her professional services at theshortstoryeditor.com. \nEditor and Proofreader\nThe Short Story Editor\n🌐 theshortstoryeditor.com\n@ThShrtStryEdtr
