Rochester Writer's Conference Spring 2019

This is by far my favorite writing conference.  Each year that I attend I am never disappointed with the high caliber of organization, key note speakers, and break-out sessions.  This year was no different... except that this year, I was granted the honor of being a presenter and panelist! I was so very pleased to be selected to present a workshop on "Building An Indie Publishing Company".  I appreciate everyone who attended, and I am grateful for your kindness.

This conference focused on the nuances of Self or Independent Publishing.  There's a lot of information out there, and Conference Leader, Michael Dwyer, was able to pull some of the best minds in the Indie Publishing world together to empty their brains for those who wanted to learn more.  I was by far, not the strongest speaker, but I was pleased to share the day with Mel Corrigan, Sylvia Hubbard, Lev Raphael, Coleen Gleason, Weam Namou, and a fantastic collection of Michigan's Indie Authors.

Presentations included "Why I'm A Self-Published Author", Publishing from Indie Author to International Distribution"; "Is Self-Publishing Right For You", "Self-Publishing: The Numbers", and much more.  The day was full of fun, encouragement, information, and creative inspiration.

More than reasonably priced at $160, with lunch included, this is one of the best-value conferences I've ever attended.  Usually, after an event like this, I'm pleased if I go home with 10% of useful information.  With Rochester Writers', I always go home with 90% or more useful information.  If you're an author, or an aspiring author, I highly recommend that you attend.  Held twice per year, once in Spring and again in Autumn (October 19, 2019, this year) at Oakland University, you'll walk away knowing more than you did before, and surged with energy to finish your book or perhaps write another one!

A Huge Thank You goes out to Michael Dwyer and Sonya Julie for continuing to present such a valuable resource to Michigan Writers!
