This in-person event offers something for writers of all levels — critiques and pitches, pre-conference workshops, Q&A panels, craft and publishing talks, keynotes,
a slushfest, a queryfest, an open mic and more.

More than 20 agents, editors, authors, poets, screenwriters and journalists
will join us for three days of inspiration, camaraderie and learning.

Speakers include National Book Award winner Jason Mott,
the author of Hell of a Book and The Returned;
Janisse Ray, the celebrated Georgia author of Ecology of a Cracker Childhood;
Ashley Poston, the New York Times bestselling author
of The Seven Year Slip and The Dead Romantics;
and Columbia author Claire Jimenez, whose just-published novel
What Happened to Ruthy Ramirez is a USA Today must-read title.

Best of all, the early bird price is the same as last year!
So increase if you act before June 30!
