What is keeping you from being published?

You know you have a great story to tell, but you're not sure where to start. Or you've already got it written down, but you don't know who to share it with. If you stop there, your manuscripts and podcasts, screenplays and articles will go unfinished or unseen.
​
Unless...

Great stories should have great connections.

"I want to thank Northwestern Christian Writers Conference for being a big part of my story. The speakers, workshops, and people have impacted my walk with Jesus. This conference stretched me to be the truest version of myself for the glory of God."
