Aloha Megan,
I am excited to tell you the Kauai Writers Conference has just published its complete general conference schedule, including 48 sessions over three days, November 8-10, 2019. The conference is preceded by intensive four-day Master Classes, running each day November 4-7. You can see the schedule by visiting Kauai Writers Conference and selecting “Schedule” at the top of the page.
Whether members of Orange County Writers are focused on fiction or non-fiction, short-form or screenplay, our faculty of 22 world-class authors will be there to share their knowledge of craft and publishing during panel sessions and hands-on workshops. If you are a writer of literary or popular fiction, memoir, crime/thrillers, historical fiction, children’s books or YA, the Kauai Writers Conference has sessions for you, led by best-selling writers in your genre.
Our authors are committed to sharing their insights and practices in every session, with workshops on voice and POV, plot structure, character development, setting, story arc, revision and other key elements of story-telling.
The “business” of writing is also a significant part of the Kauai Writers Conference. Writers can schedule individual sessions to pitch their work and get personalized critiques from 14 literary agents and publishing professionals. There are conference sessions on navigating today’s publishing landscape, working with agents and publishers, exploring alternative forms of publishing, book-to-screen adaptation and more.
Your group members can review all master class and conference sessions by visiting Kauai Writers Conference. Remember to take advantage of the 20% writing group discount by entering WG789 on the check-out page. Your members can also arrange for a phone/online chat with our staff who can help fashion a conference schedule and book agent/publisher meetings most appropriate to their needs.
Sincerely,
Kurt Indvik
