What will be happening at the SFWC?  The event spans four days (five if you count the No-Host Dinner on Wednesday evening for early arrivals!) 
The event is packed with 100+ sessions for writers–from the craft of writing to the business of publishing. There is copious networking with the very people who can advance your writing career; a glorious opening gala; two keynote luncheons and breakfasts; lots of social interaction with other writers; and evening Open Mic readings and pitch sessions.  There will be exhibitors with services and tools for writers, too.

The 2017 SFWC Schedule is now available!  Click here
