Thinking about attending a writing conference but not sure if it’s worth the in-person commitment? In this video, I break down 3 major reasons why you should prioritize attending in-person writing events—whether it’s a writing conference, festival, or workshop. While online events are convenient, nothing beats the real-time connection, energy, and opportunities that come from being face-to-face with fellow writers, speakers, and industry professionals.

Here’s what we’ll cover:

In-Person Learning: Discover the unmatched value of learning directly from experienced authors and teachers in the same room.

Community & Networking: Build lifelong friendships and professional connections with other writers.

Growth Opportunities: Step out of your comfort zone and take advantage of unique experiences like pitching agents, public speaking, and more.

Whether you're an extrovert who thrives in crowds or an introvert who prefers smaller interactions, I’ll share tips on how to make the most of these events. Join me for practical advice on expanding your writer’s journey beyond the screen and into real-world connections!

Tell me, did I convince to attend a writer's conference?
