Live Events: What Authors Gain by Showing Up

With so much expert content now available online—through webinars, courses, and virtual conferences—many authors wonder if it's still worth attending live events. The answer, as you'll see below, is yes. But not just for the educational sessions. The real value often lies in the connections you make, the energy in the room, and the unexpected conversations that can shape your career.

The Benefits of Writing Conferences

The life of a writer can be a solitary one; and while an active social media platform goes some way towards overcoming feelings of isolation, it’s not the same as meeting people face-to-face. There are lots of ways you can do this, from writing classes and socials, to digital conferences like our #SelfPubCon. If you haven't registered yet, the next conference is in less than three weeks, hop over here to sign up. Elizabeth Dulcie, author member, has just been to two in-person writing conferences and is here to tell us why you should be attending conferences too.
