When Words Collide: Write it Right (Human Trafficking)
Talena Winters, ACT Alberta, P.D. Workman
Human Trafficking is a huge industry, in both North America and around the world. With an estimated 40 million victims and generating $150 billion annually, it is not limited to third world countries, and affects people in all classes and industries. Misconceptions about human trafficking that make it into your writing don't help you as an author and don't educate readers on the scope of the problem.

When Words Collide: Knowing the Rules and When to Break them panel
Jonas Saul, Holly Schofield, Carol Parchewsky, Talena Winters
There are grammar absolutes, but there’s also grammar wiggle room. How do you make sense of which rules are unbreakable and which can be bent? What are style guides and how are they applied to your manuscript? What’s the social contract between reader and writer? Host: Jennifer Slebioda
