I feel fortunate to be involved with an innovative new writers' conference on historical St.Simon's Island in Georgia. It has been mounted by incredibly energetic people who have planned three conferences (each with a different theme) for their inaugural year. I hope you'll plan to attend. If not, I hope you'll help us spread the word, especially the conference's support of the No Child Left Behind charity. You will find information and contact information direct from the planners below:

Scribblers’ Retreat Writers’ Conference would like to present you with an opportunity to partner with us in creating the most exciting development since the printing press.
Scribblers’ Retreat Writers’ Conference is a non-profit organization committed to the support and advancement of all writers published and non-published, offering four conferences of specifically chosen genres throughout the year, providing conference attendees a symposium of experienced authors, teachers, editors and others from the publishing world.
Scribblers’ Retreat Writers’ Conference, An International Forum for Writers, Publishers and Educators, cordially invites you to participate in our international budding authors conferences.
Above is our agenda for 2009, offering a total of ten sessions per conference. Scribblers’ Retreat Writers’ Conference prefers to have a montage of the above talent at each conference to introduce attendees to all levels of the Language Arts World.
Scribblers’ Retreat Writers’ Conference would appreciate your assistance in inviting these creative guest speakers and budding authors of all ages to attend our conferences. This is an extraordinary way to bring together the current “Hemingways” and “Laniers” with those of tomorrow.
This is not just for adults. Scribblers’ Retreat Writers’ Conference is extending this internationally to Middle and High School Students as well as to College and University Students.
Scribblers’ Retreat Writers’ Conference is proud to support “No Child Left Behind."
Scribblers’ Retreat appreciates your assistance in offering this invitation to all authors, book stores, editors, libraries, publishers, schools regionally, nationally, and internationally (students 12 years old and up), and writers’ workshops.

Diane, it never hurts to ask. The only ones who could ever answer a question like that would be the program directors or planners. November is a way off, though. (-: The contact info is in the blog and if it is too late, at least the planners would know about you. (-:
ReplyDeleteBest,
Carolyn
Thanks for the info. I'm always looking for interesting writing conferences to attend. Wish I could attend the one in May.
