Crossroads Writers Conference

Crossroads Writers Conference October 5-7, 2012 the Marriott City Center & Convention Hotel Macon, GA

NaNoWriMo founder Chris Baty joins us at Crossroads. Not only did he start the wildly popular National Novel Writing Month, but he's the author of "No Plot? No Problem!" and co-author of "Ready! Set! Novel!" If you're looking for inspiration, you'll find it when Chris Baty takes the stage.

Write YOUR book THIS year!

You've got the best idea for a book, right? But you've got to go to work and you've got errands to do, and your friends want to hang out, and the kids need to be fed... and everything's standing in your way. But if you want to join the ranks of published authordom then you need to, as TeddyAndTaft says, "Quit piddling and write your book."

Embiggen Your Creativity!

You've got the nugget of a great idea but you want to take it further, and you know to turn it into a book or script means lots of imagination. So come to Crossroads for a creativity-boosting experience that'll knock the stripes off your socks. (You do still wear knee-high, red-striped athletic socks, right? If not, that's step one to being more creative. It also makes it easier to knock the stripes off 'em.)

Connect with folks who GET IT

Writing is a lonely art. Just you and that blank screen. If you've enjoyed the community of a writing group or participated in some of the write-ins during NaNo, you get why it helps to connect with people who see the world the way you do. Not just other amateurs but professionals too. They were once just like you. At Crossroads, you get to pick their brains to learn how they went from lonely word nerd to lonely word nerd with a following and some published books.

Pull it all together!

You're passionate. You're creative. You're dedicated. Something just isn't clicking. Ideas? Check. Hard work? Check. The drive? Check. You know what? Sometimes it's the little things that make the biggest difference. At Crossroads, you can figure out how to finish that pesky draft or what to do with the one you already have. Connect with other writers and maybe find a new writing buddy or something who can give you an honest, unbiased opinion. Swap stories and trade tips. You can pull it all together at Crossroads.
