2010 Conference


  
The Annual WV Writers Spring Conference will take place June 11, 12 and 13, 2010 at Cedar Lakes Conference Center near Ripley, WV.

Pre-registration for the Conference will be open from March 1 through May 30, 2010.  Please use the two forms below for your registration.

*Please note that registration is a two-part process.  The Conference Registration Form is to register for the conference itself.  The Cedar Lakes form is to register for lodging and meals at the conference, including the Awards Banquet.  Cedar Lakes is not taking phone reservations, but is only taking reservations via the registration form.

In addition to the many writing workshops at the Conference, we will also be holding one on one pitch sessions with Peter Lynch of Sourcebooks, Inc. as well as one-on-one children's book critique sessions with Kaylan Adair of Candlewick Press.  The details on how to be a part of those sessions are still in the works.  WV Writers members and those pre-registering for the conference will be alerted by email and in our WVW print newsletter as to the details on those sessions.
  WVW Members, please be sure WVW has your current email address on file by sending confirmation to westvirginiawriters@gmail.com.

Please see our Presenter Bios below for more hints on special offers for conference attendees.
