So glad you joined us, Claire!! This was a great overview of the summit, and I'm sure lots of people will be looking for it next year when they're trying to decide whether or not to attend. (Nancy from the WIP team)

Thanks for reading! I thought you guys did such a wonderful job organizing and being transparent with whatever technical glitches (and weather-related) issues that came up. I will definitely be joining next year. Feel free to share it with anyone who wants to know what the conference is all about! 😬

Awesome review. Sounds like a really cool conference and cheap!

Great recap Claire. I too was taken by surprise the last day. While many of the chat sessions were interesting, they were mixed with lots of people doing different aspects of writing, and only a sprinkling of memoir writers. Our last group was dynamic ( especially for the geriatric set- I can say that because I’m one of them) and driven. You were a bright spark as one of the younger people who understood marketing with ease. I look forward to reading more of what you have to share.

Thanks Dawn, I agree our group was so passionate and dynamic! Looking forward to getting to know everyone a bit better through the Facebook group! :) Keep me posted if there’s anything marketing related you want me to write about too.

I'm glad you had fun! Writing communities are essential and i wished i had more time to be actively part of one.

Thanks Ameena! You should totally look into conferences like WIP. They offer recorded videos of all the sessions, so you could watch them after it's over too! Plus it's so affordable.
