Because before, the focus regarding that was on agents and publishing-house editors. But a seismic shift has occurred in the "business" angle these days. The focus is still on writing great and believable books. Yes, they still offer sessions on the nuts-and-bolts of writing, author panels that address experiences, expert sessions on technical issues such as police procedures or poison deaths in mysteries, research for historical novels, etc.
The information is almost always useful, and the networking, a huge boon.īut as the publishing world changes, so too do writers conferences. I'm a conference proponent, as I've written about before.
Last weekend I spoke at the first annual Lexicon Writer's Conference, which promises to be a big player as time goes on.
