  Writers' Conference 2008    
 
We are hard at work on 2008's Flathead River Writer's Conference.

It will take place on the weekend of 4/5 October 2008. The Pre-conference Workshops will take place Wed - Fri 1 - 3 October. And we still have more exciting new changes in store we know you will enjoy.

The first of those changes we are thrilled to announce.

We will be holding our conference on the campus of Flathead Valley Community College in Kalispell, Montana.

So far we have this preliminary lineup for the General Conference guest speakers:

  • Denise Little, Senior Editor at Tekno Books. Tekno Books worked on Tom Clancy's Op Center books and the Left Behind Kids Books.

  • Laura Hayden, Romance and Mystery writer. She'll speak on fiction.

  • Stephanne Dennis, agent with Authors Literary Agency

  • John Woestendiek, Pulitzer Prize winning writer for the Baltimore Sun

    • Also speaking at the General Conference and offering Pre-conference Workshops will be:

  • Cathy Scott, bestselling non-fiction author will offer a three-day non-fiction workshop. Her latest book, just released: The Paw Prints of Katrina.

  • Rick Reichman, back by popular demand, will offer a three-day workshop on screenwriting.

    • As we fill in details and lock down some more of our plans we will post them here. So come back often to find out what's next and what's new for 2008. Keep watching this space for more info on the conference and our guest presenters.
