Calling all writers in the Dallas area…
Feb 07, 2014 07:04 pm | Chip MacGregor
A new writing conference is fast approaching — and you’re invited.
On Saturday, February 15, I will be speaking at the Dallas Writers’ University. It’s a one-day event, with a rather intensive agenda:
- I’ll speak on “developing a book proposal that sells,” and the focus will be on giving practical, hands-on help to writers who want to create a proposal that will get noticed.
- I’ll also be speaking on “creating your long-term publishing strategy,” with an emphasis on traditional publishing, niche publishing, self-publishing, and alternative strategies for writers to make a living.
- Michelle Borquez, bestselling author and entrepreneur, will explore “building a platform around your concept.”
- There will be a Q&A time, and everybody there will have a face to face meeting with me sometime during the day.
- Finally, Michelle and I will be talking about the secret to success in contemporary publishing.

I’m really looking forward to this opportunity. I’ve largely taken time away from conferences the past couple years, but I love talking to authors about proposals and strategy. And you’re invited. Again, every participant gets face time with me, where we’ll be reviewing proposals and talking about next steps in a one-on-one setting. That means our space is limited to just 30 people.
Here’s the thing . . . there are a hundred conferences you can go to in order to get some basic information on writing. But if you really want to join a small group and find out how to create a book that will sell, make some money, and gain entry into the world of publishing by talking to some experienced people in the industry, I hope you’ll consider joining us. I don’t do many conferences anymore (and rarely do a writing conference), so I’m excited to be asked to be part of this one.
The event is going to be in the Dallas area, at a church in White Settlement. The cost is $250 and includes lunch – but if you mention this blog when you sign up, you can attend for $199. Again, you can find out all you need to know by clicking here.
If you live anywhere in the area, I would love to have you come and introduce yourself to me.
Feel free to ask me questions — happy to be doing this!
