How to Survive and Maybe Even Thrive as a Writer

October 17, 2026 4:00 PM –5:00 PM

Overview

OlyPages is honored to welcome Local novelist Jim Lynch as our special guest author for our Fall 2026 term! Jim is offering a talk on the joy, obsession and exasperation of trying to write and publish good fiction. He will share his approach to writing discipline as well as his survival tactics for dealing with the daunting work and the capricious business end of it, too. Jim will also share some of the craft advice that has helped him the most when it comes to creating and revising short and long fiction.

Jim is generously donating his time for this event. There is no fee to attend, but all donations from this event will go toward OlyPages’ Scholarship Fund.

Location: upstairs at OlyPages Studio.
