What you said
about the weekend . . .
“Good speakers. Relevant workshops. Organized by nice and helpful people.”
“Access to authors and agent. Plenty of good meals...no hunting for meals in an unfamiliar place. Having all meals provided also helps with group cohesion & facilitates chatting with other attendees.”
“Appreciated the mix of authors, agents and editors! Very educational and inspiring mix of personalities.”
“Like Donald Maass and Jim Bell's sessions in the past, Jessica Morrell's seminars were excellent. She covered tremendous ground on practically every element of craft, and her handouts were stellar.”
“Really a fantastic selection of authors. Extremely helpful!”
“Liked that Books a Million handled the books for us.”
”The conference was well organized. The speakers were knowledgeable. And there sufficient time to mingle with other writers. Overall, outstanding.”
So, what did you like best about the conference?
“Everything.”
