Realm Makers conference 2014

[Kristen]

I hope I'm not double-posting, but I looked around and didn't see this already.

The Realm Makers conference will be held May 30-31 in Philadelphia. We had a fantastic time at last year's event -- you can read all about it here: newauthors.wordpress.com/tag/realm-makers/ and Kat Heckenbach wrote about it also: www.katheckenbach.com/2013/08/my-ha-moment-or-realm-makers-part-1-12.html

This conference is for Christians who write speculative fiction, whether for the general market or the Christian submarket.

The faculty is fabulous and includes Jeff Gerke, Steve Laube, and LB Graham. realmmakers.com/faculty.html

And Tosca Lee is the keynote speaker. Tosca Lee, people! Do I need to say more?!

(ahem)

It will be brilliant! So who's coming?

I'm going to be there! With bells and whistles, as promised to a certain someone.

[Teskas]

Thanks for the info. Gosh, it looks good.

[Kristen]

It will be fantastic!

I signed up to go last year, but had to cancel at the last minute due to work. But I'm registered and planning to be there this year! Also, for anyone who's going, there is a local Philadelphia Theatre doing a production of "Screwtape Letters" that I'm planning to go see Sunday after the conference (www.lanterntheater.org/2014/screwtape.html). I don't know if anyone else is interested in going, but I thought I'd share here and ask people to spread the word.

Not able to go. Just don't have the money, plus I'm trying to get an anthology done so I can move on the three other writing projects, all of which have publishers, and get those done by the end of this year. Maybe next year....

[Kristen]

I'm flying Sunday, so I'll have to skip the theater. Too bad, it sounds great! See you at conference, shieldbearer! Dana, we'll miss you, but good going on the anthology!

[Teskas]

Be sure to bring back some tips for those of us who can't go. Gosh, I'm feeling wistful.

Hmm...maybe I can recruit some live bloggers. I'll post what I can, but I take notes better and faster by hand, so they would be delayed in transcription.

Stephen Burnett live Tweeted a bunch of tips last year, so you might watch #RealmMakers in case he does it again.
