You can still join me in NYC in a few weeks—but you’ll want to act quickly!| | | Save your seat before it’s gone! |
| I've attended many, many writing conferences during my 10+ years with WD, and always return to the office with a renewed sense of purpose and perspective—so it's been a thrill for me to have a bigger hand in our programming for the Writer’s Digest Annual Conference this year. I can hardly believe it's almost here (there's still time to register to join us in New York City August 18-20!) and I'm more excited than ever to get there and dig in.

I know firsthand how frustrating it is to register for an event, finally receive the program, and find that all the sessions you were most looking forward to seem to have been scheduled for the same time slot, forcing you to choose—when other hours of the day don't offer anything that really catches your interest. That's why we offer five distinct education tracks, measure early interest in various topics, and do our best to spread out our most popular offerings throughout the schedule—so that you'll never feel an hour is wasted, and can stay engaged and energized from start to finish.
You can mix and match to create your own perfect lineup. Here's a sampling of some highlights to choose from:

Secrets to Succeeding as a Mystery Writer Crafting a Strong Short Story My favorite thing about the Writer's Digest Annual Conference is that it always meets you where you are. I'm a perfect example: St. Martin's Press released my debut novel, Almost Missed You, just a few short months ago, and I'm under contract for two more—and this event is just as relevant to me today as it was when I was looking for an agent.
If you haven't registered yet, I hope you'll jump in while there's still time. Looking forward to seeing you there!
