Our committee for the Bloggers and Authors Meetup (BAM) this summer were so excited by your responses. So, we’re planning an all-day writers conference at Lake Hart on March 8th. The conference name will probably be Called to Write.

This conference is for Cru staff and easy to attend from the central Florida area. The reason I’m posting this event more broadly is to alert any staff who might already be thinking about a trip into Orlando this spring. You’re welcome to join us. It’ll help us if you indicate your interest in the following survey even if you don’t know yet if you’ll be in the area at that time. We want to be sure anyone who has any interest receives the Called to Write details as we get closer to the conference date. The conference will cap at 48 people.

We’re in the very early stages of planning. Judy Douglass will open the conference with a message to set the tone for our day together. We’re planning times for you to network, to write and receive feedback, and to learn. The schedule you see in the survey is just our first thoughts. The planning committee is meeting again on the 30th, so your quick response to this short survey will help us craft a conference that is carefully put together with Cru writers in mind. Please take a few minutes to respond to our survey.

[UPDATE (02/14/2018): The conference is full. We’re taking waiting list names. UPDATE: (11/17/18): We are still working through details and will have a $25 registration fee.]
