If you read the heading of this post, you probably noticed I used the word opportunity. It’s not too late to join 500 other fiction writers in the annual ACFW Conference (American Christian Fiction Writers). Here’s the info:
STANDING FIRM…MOVING FORWARD
“Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.” 1 Corinthians 15:58 (KJV)
DENVER, COLORADO
SEPTEMBER 17 – 20, 2009
Bestselling authors, publishing industry representatives, and newcomers to Christian fiction writing will gather in Denver at the American Christian Fiction Writer’s annual conference September 17-20 to compare notes, learn from each other, and encourage one another in the pursuit of publishing goals.
This year’s conference theme, Standing Firm…Moving Forward, will especially inspire the full range of talent and dreams in the ever-changing publishing world today.
This amazing conference will feature representatives from major publishing houses like B & H, Guideposts, Zondervan, Harvest House, Barbour, Steeple Hill, Summerside Press, Bethany House, Waterbrook Multnomah, Marcher Lord Press, Tyndale House, and Thomas Nelson, and top literary agents who will meet with writers and identify promising proposals from both new and veteran novelists. Conferees will have access to publishing panels, professional critiques, and customized workshops based on skills and interests.
The keynote speaker is New York Times bestselling author, Debbie Macomber, who has more than 100 million copies of her books in print worldwide.

If you’re not a writer but live in the Denver area and want to meet some of the best Christian authors on the market today, you are invited to attend the booksigning at the Marriott Tech Center Hotel in southeast Denver. The following authors will be signing from 4 – 5:30 pm in the hotel conference center. Books are available in the conference bookstore.
I’m fortunate to be able to attend the conference again this year. Denver is one of my favorite spots on the planet, so I’ll be soaking up the mountain air and taking in the sights ahead of time. In view of that, I won’t be posting here for a week or so. I’ll have a full conference report when I get back. Don’t get into trouble while I’m away.
