Happy Halloween.
Oops, wrong holiday. Or is it?
The 2018 Steel Pen Creative
Writers’ Conference will be held on October 27 at the conference center at Fair
Oaks Farms, which is located north of Rensselaer, Indiana just off I-65. Since
that’s the Saturday before Halloween and we have a keynote speaker with the devil
as a protagonist, it’s the perfect opportunity for a literary costume contest.
While costumes are optional, we encourage
attendees to come dressed as their favorite literary character or writer. (Well,
any writer except Edgar Allen Poe. He’s already taken, and you don’t want to
anger the conference chairperson, do you?)
The venue caters to children, so
keep it clean. Other than that (and not coming as Poe), anything goes.
But you can’t participate if you
don’t register for the conference. Although registration runs through October
15, early registration prices end on July 14. You can register at www.steelpenconference.org. That’s
also the place to find more information on the keynote speaker and the
break-out sessions.
So sign up now and spend your
Fourth of July planning for Halloween.
