WRITER'S DIGEST NOVEL WRITING CONFERENCE

They're masters of their genres, but they've got lessons for every novelist.

At the Writer's Digest Novel Writing Conference, bestselling authors representing some of fiction's most exciting genres—including thriller, science fiction and horror, among others—will converge on Los Angeles the weekend of August 15–17. This is your chance to learn in person from some of today's most accomplished novelists! But you'll want to act fast. With less than two weeks until the event, space is filling quickly. Register today so you don't miss out on speakers like these:

Jonathan Maberry, the New York Times Bestselling Author of Rot & Ruin and Code Zero, kicks everything off on Friday night! In his Opening Keynote, he'll share his insights into the state of contemporary publishing and why your dedication to the craft trumps every other factor when it comes to becoming a successful writer.

New York Times Bestselling Author of Annihilation and Baldur's Gate, Philip Athans will guide you in the creation of realistic, effective—and compelling—dialogue in his two-part Living Dialogue session.

USA Today Bestselling Author Larry Brooks helps you pump up your novel in his Saturday session Your Story on Steroids: How to Make Your Story Stronger, Bigger, and Better Than Ever.     David Morrell, New York Times Bestselling Author of First Blood and The Brotherhood of the Rose explains why you should “be a first-rate version of yourself and not a second-rate version of another writer” in his Keynote, Finding Your Voice and Your Subject.

And those are just some of the bestselling authors and publishing experts, who'll be on hand to mentor you. Explore the whole program and we think you'll find that the price—just $299 when you register by August 14—is remarkable, but the potential value to your writing career is truly exceptional.
