Take a brave step.

1.   Register

We'll plug you into a network of peers and experts you can meet.
2.   Attend the Conference

You'll learn, connect, and mature with friends in a faith-filled environment.
3.   Share Your Story

​Finish your manuscript. Pitch it to an agent. Or share it with an audience. Whatever you do next, it's going to be amazing.

We set out to get Christian writers unstuck. We've pulled together authors and agents, editors and coaches from across the Christian publishing realm to help you share your story.
