Upcoming Writer's Conferences & Book Events

This month there is a huge release party for Brandon Mull's new series The Beyonders which comes out on Tuesday, March 15th will be held at Cottonwood High School in Murray, Utah. For further information please click on Brandon's site. Brandon always has an incredible release party and it is well worth attending. Usually there are booths for a few other authors from the same publishing firm there as well.

In April, there is a conference to be held in American Fork, Utah. For further details please go to Caleb Warnock's blog. The price is incredible and the information invaluable.

In May, the LDS Storymaker's will be hosting a conference in Salt Lake City. For further details click on their conference site. I went to this two years ago and the classes were amazing and it was absolutely brilliant to be taught by so many incredible authors.

Also in May, is the Provo Children's Book Festival will be held May 7th. The one I went to a few years ago had 30-40 children's book authors and illustrators, plus games and activities for the kids. It is an event well worth attending. There aren't many details as of yet, but keep checking the Provo Library website for details beginning in April.
