Announcing Our 2020 Showcase!

Announcing Our 2020 Showcase!

January 6, 2020 Showcase 2020, WriteOnCon News 5 Comments

Can’t wait for WriteOnCon 2020? Want to experience some live events now? Then join us for our 2020 Showcase!

These nine events offer a sneak peek into what we have in store for you February 21-23. You’ll have the opportunity to interact directly with our speakers and ask your burning questions about all of these interesting and helpful topics. Each event runs exactly as the live events on conference weekend do — hosted live on our website, and about 50 minutes long. Questions can be left in the comments section of the event page in advance of or during the live stream, and our speakers will answer them live during their event.

Showcase Schedule

Click on the event title to go to the event page, where you can leave your questions (you’ll need to be logged in with your WriteOnCon account; these are free, if you don’t already have one). Return to the link at the scheduled time to enjoy the live event.

Will this be available for replay if we miss a session we want to join? I would like to know before I commit.

These will be available during the conference itself! So there will be another opportunity to view them if you miss the live stream.

I’m looking for the Showcase Event that was supposed to happen on Sunday, but the link doesn’t work and it’s not in the schedule. Was the event with Katya de Becerra cancelled?

Thank you for checking! We had to cancel this event last minute — it’s been moved to a live event during the conference itself, instead of a showcase. So it’ll still be able to be enjoyed, but just live during the conference instead of ahead of time.
