About this Event
We all have a unique set of talents—whether writing compelling dialogue or complex characters. What makes any work of fiction stand out, however, is “voice.” Writing with voice, which is often elusive and difficult to pinpoint, transforms storytelling from the everyday to compelling and original. In this talk Renee share examples of authors who write with distinctive prose and will discuss ideas that will help you develop your unique voice as a writer.
Renee Swindle is the author of Shake Down the Stars, A Pinch of Ooh La La, and Please Please Please, an Essence Magazine bestseller. Her latest novel Francine's Spectacular Crash and Burn was included in Net Galley's We Are Bookish as a top 25 must-read by black authors for 2025, Publisher Weekly's BuzzBooks best of Spring/Summer 25 and listed as "best of raucous reads featuring messy heroines" by Goodreads. She lives in Oakland, CA
