Chicago Writer's Association Conference

Attention fellow writers! The conference is less than a month away and only a limited number of seats are still available. There have been a few changes so check out the final conference schedule here, and read more about our presenters - it's a terrific line-up packed with professionals from Chicago, New York and beyond.

And, watch for an email with a special opportunity from best-selling author David Fisher who has generously agreed to mentor an attendee and get a manuscript in front of an agent. Really!

At the Saturday evening dinner you'll have a chance to network with fellow writers, conference presenters and CWA board members, and we will hear from Fred Mitchell, award-winning sportswriter (the first African-American sportswriter hired by the Chicago Tribune), author of 11 books, journalist and Hall of Famer, who will talk about his 41-year writing career and the people he has met along the way. (Please note that the dinner is an additional fee.)

As a member of the Chicago Writer's Association board, I will be there too. Looking forward to it!

Register soon.
