You enjoy options and like to choose from a wide array of knowledgeable speakers? Whether you are into fiction, non-fiction, poetry, journalism or are eager to learn more about publishing and marketing your work, this Conference pools together a large host of speakers from which to choose. The array of talent is truly outstanding.
The current speaker list and conference schedule are in process, but we can reveal that Catriona McPherson is one of the keynote speakers.
Catriona was born in Scotland and lived there until 2010, before immigrating to California. A former academic linguist, she is now a full-time fiction writer, the multi- award-winning and best-selling author of the Dandy Gilver detective stories, set in Scotland in the 1920s. She also writes a strand of award-winning contemporary standalone novels including Edgar-finalist The Day She Died and Mary Higgins Clark finalists The Child Garden and Quiet Neighbors.
CWC members may attend all three days for only $120, regular price is $240. Ignore the “any two people” on the registration form, we have arranged for you to be able to obtain this fantastic discount on your own — just mention CWC Marin. But please, invite your friends. This is an amazing opportunity. I’ve attended twice — it was fun, I had lots of choices for each time slot, and it’s an amazing value.
