The 2009 Willamette Writers Conference will be August 7-9 at the Portland Airport Sheraton Hotel! Naturally as the Salem Chapter Representatives, Heather and I will be in attendance. I'm sure if you've read or heard anything about the writing industry and breaking into publication, you've heard that conferences are the way to go! I was slow to understand this myself, but it's really true. The opportunities that abound from attending a conference are substantial. To learn more about the 2009 Willamette Writers Conference go to
