Save the Date: Bay to Ocean Writers Conference

The 17th Annual Bay to Ocean Writers Conference will be held February 22, 2014 at Chesapeake College, in Wye Mills, Maryland. This year’s conference features twenty-four sessions/workshops. Topics include: the craft of writing–fiction, poetry, mystery, memoir, magazine features; publishing, including self-publishing; the business of writing; digital issues–blogging and using social media; and how books get made into films. One-to-one manuscript reviews by published authors will be available by appointment. Conference fees are $115 for adults and $55 for students with ID. As one of the region’s premier educational seminars, last year’s conference drew a sellout crowd of over 200 writers from five states and the District of Columbia. Registration will open on October 1 at http://www.baytoocean.com. Early registration is recommended as the conference has sold out for the last seven years.
