Writer’s Conferences are so helpful. It’s there we learn craft, understand the industry, network with friends who can propel your writing, and so much more. Conferences offer connection, encouragement, and access to information that’s hard to find elsewhere. I’ve taught at them, attended them, and benefited from them.
