Kennesaw, GA, November 6, 2010—Don’t Ever Give Up. The 2010 Red Clay Writing Conference will share that powerful message with attendees, and based on success stories from previous events, this event is certainly the place for both the professional and creative writers to find support, learn great tips for writing, and network with other writers from around the state. “For me, Red Clay has become my "can't miss" annual writers' conference. It's not just how much I learn - and I always learn a lot; it's the opportunity to meet and network with the seminar leaders and fellow authors. If you want to sharpen your craft and keep up with the rapidly evolving writing industry, don't miss it!  (J. Steve Miller, President, Legacy Educational Resources, Author of Enjoy Your Money!
