Live in the NY/NJ/PA/CT/DE area? You should seriously consider adding the 2015 Create Something Magical Conference on your list of writerly things to do this year. Expanded to 2 days, this year’s keynote speaker is Sylvia Day. The conference includes a writers track and a readers track and a book fair, author signings, as well as workshops, editor/agent appointments, and a Saturday night social. Plenty of opportunities to rub elbows with writers and agents. This year’s conference is scheduled for Saturday, March 21 and Sunday, March 22, 2015 at the Renaissance Woodbridge Hotel in Iselin, NJ.
I found last year’s conference to be energizing and informative. Being close to NY brings in a serious agent crowd, but the NJ location gives it a more layed back feel. Check it out at www.libertystatesfictionwriters.com.
What conferences are on your schedule this year?
Thanks for the tip, I’ll have to research this one. I went to the Writer’s Digest East Coast Conference last year (in NYC) and I loved it. I’m mulling going back this year…added incentive of some playtime in NYC 🙂

I really liked this show. Big enough to feel legit, but small enough to feel familiar. I went to BookCon in NY last year. It’s more of a reader event than a writer event and it was crazy. Won’t be going back this year, but I’m going to keep my eye on it. 🙂
