Keynote Speaker, Agents Scheduled for 2010 DFW Writers’ Conference

New York Times and USA Today best-selling author, Jodi Tho­mas, has agreed to be the key­note spea­ker at the 2010 DFW Wri­ters’ Con­fe­rence. A native Texan, she is the award-winning author of seve­ral novels. We look for­ward to her pre­sen­ta­tion. 

Eight lite­rary agents have also agreed to attend the event, inc­lu­ding Anne Haw­kins and Gina Panet­tieri who mis­sed this year’s con­fe­rence due to ill­ness. Joi­ning them are Joshua Bil­mes, Lau­rie McLean, Lucienne Diver, Melissa Shultz, Paul S. Levine, and Vic­to­ria Horn. More agents may be added later, but the num­ber of pitch ses­sions will be limi­ted, so early regis­tra­tion is recom­men­ded. 

The 2010 con­fe­rence is loo­king to bring you more value for your regis­tra­tion dollars. We already offer free par­king ($7 — $10 at other con­fe­ren­ces), inc­lude the key­note luncheon (a $35 extra cost elsewhere), and the agent appoint­ments (as high as $50 at other con­fe­ren­ces).  As an added bene­fit in 2010, on-line clas­ses, such as “How to Get the Most from Your Agent Appoint­ment” will be offe­red — you gues­sed it, for free (a $50 to $100 extra fee elsewhere).  Join us for the best con­fe­rence value in the South­west.   

The con­fe­rence will be held April 10–11, 2010 at the Gra­pe­vine Con­ven­tion Cen­ter in Gra­pe­vine, Texas. Early regis­tra­tion starts soon. See the infor­ma­tion box in the right hand column on this site, or get more details at www​.DFWW​ri​ters​Con​fe​rence​.org.
