Writers have always used social networks of friends, family and other writers to promote their work and improve their writing.

Today, these conversations are increasingly happening online. A social media presence is considered essential by many aspiring writers, but there is more to social networking than updating your Facebook status.

At this hands-on workshop journalist, blogger and editor Kelly Gardiner will guide emerging writers through the benefits and challenges of the social web.
