The Rocky Mountain Writers Summit - Why was a real estate agent there?

Yesterday I attended the 2nd annual Rocky Mountain Writers Summit.  It was a free event for all types of aspiring authors.  I attended out of curiosity and my business reason was to potentially write books about real estate to enhance my business.  There is always that sneaky suspicion or desire to write a real book. 

This was a free event.  You were encourage to give a $5 donation for Habitat for Humanity, of course I did.  I was real curious to see the attendance and the type of people who were there.

This photo was taken between sessions and it was a packed house.  It gave me several ideas on how to help my real estate business.

The pain and setbacks we go through as real estate agents is nothing compared to what these writers go through.  For us that one listing that is not selling or the buyer who is difficult can bring misery into our lives, but the writer has it worse.

The vast majority of these writers put there heart and soul into their book and many of them spend years on this project.  Think we put the same time and effort into a listing?  Not a chance.  My book, booklet, or e-book on How to buy a HUD home is simple compared to what they do.

I plan on doing an individual breakout of each of the individual speakers that I saw.

Mike, I have to admit that "How To Buy a HUD Home" doesn't carry the same appeal as a new murder mystery or historical biography. Glad you found the even interesting though.

LOL.  I agree.  I felt out of place at the event.  It's not like networking at the local investor club.

I'm not a real writer either.  Maybe I can learn to fake it.
