3 Prize-winning Authors
2 high-powered literary agents
1 well-connected publicist
only 24 attendees
For our 2026 writers conference, we're bringing together 3 distinguished authors, plus 3 publishing industry professionals to lead our workshops and master classes.
​
That's a ratio of 1 faculty member for every 4 participants!
​
Mornings will be given over to small (4 writers maximum) workshop groups, led by a different faculty member each day.
​
Each afternoon, one of our distinguished faculty members will give a one-hour master class in everything from the craft of writing, to how to impress (and work with) an agent, to the ins and outs of publicizing your book.
​
In the evenings, participants are invited to read short excerpts from their writing to the group at large.
