Write On Con - Free Online Kidlit Conference
http://writeoncon.com/
August 10 – 12, 2010
This online conference is free. The curriculum focuses on picture book, middle grade, and young adult writers. However, they say much of the information provided will apply to all writers, and since the conference is free, any interested writer is encouraged to attend. To accommodate day jobs, the schedule will feature more static elements during working hours, and all live events have been saved for the evenings. Transcripts for most sessions will also be available for download. Lots of agents and published authors are participating.
