Join us June 25th, 2025 for our next meeting
Dinner 5:30
Presentation 6:30
​
​
​Rob Slater will host a panel about Writers Conferences and Conventions.
​
What do you take? How expensive are they really? In terms of your writing bottom line, is it worth the money to travel to distant conferences? What are the focuses for specific conferences: genres, poetry, screenwriting, writing skills, marketing, networking...
Our panel will be Candy Wellman, Janet Oakley, and Spencer Ellsworth. What questions do you have about conferences and conventions? We'll bring our expertise, but knowing what questions people have can help guide our presentation. E-mail questions to rob@robslater.com
​
If you have experience with conventions and conferences, there will be opportunities for you to share as well.
​​Note We are now be meeting at Buffalo Wild Wings at the Bellis Fair Mall. They have a side room that is double or more than that of the old location. RESERVATIONS are required so that we are properly staffed to eat quickly.​
New to WWP
Welcome, Pacific Northwest Writers!
We meet every last Wednesday from September to June in scenic Bellingham, WA. Supper starts at 5:30, and the speaker starts at 6:30-7.
Dues are 25 dollars a year or 40 for two years. We use the dues to pay for our speakers to come from around the region, and for an occasional table at local writer events. Our dues year runs from September to June, like our meetings, but will roll over if you pay late in the cycle. If you want to try us out first, feel free. Speakers in the past have included authors Cami Ostman and Robert Dugoni, and agent Donald Maass, covering topics such as social media, self-publishing, memoirs, mixed media, poetry, fiction, and nonfiction. It is our goal to offer something for everyone, no matter your place in the writing journey-- just starting or long-published. Old school or new. If you have an idea for a speaker or topic, let us know, but if it has been covered recently it might not be picked up.
