The WriteNow! 2020 Conference
is going virtual!
September 12, 2020
(New Date!)
Named the Best Writers Conference in Arizona by The Writer Magazine!
Featuring best-selling, award-winning and critically acclaimed authors
Michael Connelly, Matt Coyle, and Naomi Hirahara;
plus top-tier developmental editor Jessica Page Morrell and Literary Agent Kirby Kim (Janklow & Nesbit Associates).





With the move to take our conference online, we also decided to open it up to a broader community and waive the registration fee this year. To continue supporting authors and local booksellers, we are asking that all attendees buy books from our conference bookstore, The Poisoned Pen, which ships across the country.
