2005 Conference Theme Verse
We are writing these things so that our joy may be complete.
– 1 John 1:4 Holman CSB


This conference is a mid-sized conference (not as big as Mt Hermon, Glorietta or Florida but bigger than most others) and it is VERY affordable as conferences go. It is one of the few Christian writers conferences that has classes for screenwriters. They will also have the usual classes in fiction, nonfiction articles, greeting cards, devotionals, etc. The Blue Ridge Mountains Writers Conference hosts a good solid staff of editors, publishers and authors and it isn't as far away as the larger conferences.

This conference would be a good choice for someone who has done some writing but is looking for a higher level of instruction than can be obtained from library books and local classes. It also offers excellent networking possibilities and numerous contacts with editors and publishers.

Check out their website to see the staff and class offerings.
