Over the weekend, I attended the Dublin Writers Conference 2018. This three day event was filled with talks from amazing writers and getting to hear their stories was inspiring, motivating, and one of the most enjoyable experiences I’ve had so far on my writing journey. From self-published authors to traditionally published authors, I got to hear about their journeys firsthand.
