The Writer’s Digest and Book Expo America have gotten together to host a fantastic conference and expo for industry professionals, publishers, and book sellers that launches in L.A. later this month. This formerly Aussie-bound writer is finally taking to wing and I’m very excited. Have you booked your place to experience a fantastic list of events and mark your place in the publishing and book industry?

Registration is now open for the 2008 BookExpo America/Writer’s Digest Books Writers Conference

The conference begins Wednesday, May 28, 2008 with a remainders session on Thursday, May 29, 2008 and then the book expo continues Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. It’s set to be a big event at the Los Angeles Convention Center with authors, publishers, and book industry experts gathered in busy hustles.

Since I’m flying in the Friday before the conference begins I wonder if any writers would be interested in gathering on Monday or Tuesday (26th and 27th) for an impromptu gathering. We could put together a time, bring our laptops, and share a coffee, chat, and writing session together, each focused on our own novels or freelance writing. What do you think?

So, who is coming to this years Writer’s Conference and Book Expo? I know I’m coming and I hope you’ll join me. I’d love to get a chance to meet you in person and talk writing with other talented writers from the States and beyond. Join Me!
