Writers Conferences

When I started writing in 2001, I was introduced to the Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers Conference in Denver. I attended for many years until we moved back to Southern California in 2015. This conference provided panels on writing craft, how to get agents and publishers, and how to promote a book once published. It was through this conference that I received my first book contract with Five Star as a result of a pitch session to Deni Dietz of Five Star at the conference. In Southern California I’ve attended the California Crime Writers Conference twice. This writers conference is held on odd numbered years in Culver City. These conferences are a good way to improve writing and to make contacts for publishing opportunities.
