Registration

Conference registration includes admission to all lectures, panels, and breakout sessions. All registrants receive a 10-minute one-on-one consultation with an agent or editor on a first-come, first-serve basis. The sooner you register, the better your chances to get the agent or editor of your choice.

Your registration also includes two continental breakfasts (Saturday and Sunday mornings), the Saturday keynote luncheon, and two appetizer/cash-bar receptions (Friday and Saturday evenings). An exhibition hall and a bookstore will be open during the conference.

For the first time, this year's conference will include a "Self-Publishing Forum" on Sunday afternoon, featuring additional panels and talks on the growing industry of print-on-demand and self-publishing.
