Announcing Our 2020 Showcase!

Announcing Our 2020 Showcase!

January 6, 2020 Showcase 2020, WriteOnCon News

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.
