Orlando Writers Group
Welcome to the Florida Writers Association
Next Meeting
Date/Location:
The Maitland Public Library, 6:30 to 8:30, Thursday June 13th.
​
This month we again have Jaimie Engle. As previously noted, she is an award-winning novelist and screenwriter. Her awards include the L. Ron Hubbard Writers of the Future (2014), Kirkus Editor’s Choice (2020), and the Publisher’s Weekly Booklife Prize in Fiction and Non-fiction (2020). In 2021, she wrote and sold her first feature film script JUST JAKE, which was picked up by UPTv Faith & Family Network (2023), with the novelization published by Vinspire Publishing. Several other award-winning tv and feature scripts are in development with major producers and networks. Besides writing, Jaimie kickboxes, bakes grain free, and supports her boys in professional theater and varsity football. Fun fact? Jaimie danced at the Aloha Bowl halftime show.

​
This time out, she's going to talk to us about setting up a LinkedIn account, and how you can use it to network and advance your writing. If you want, bring your laptop, and she'll give us some practical advice you can implement during the presentation.
