An exciting new online kid's and ya book conference has just been announced by a couple of young enthusiastic writers. They have scored some awesome presenters including my wonderful agent Suzie Townsend. Registration for this August Conference isn't until July, but more news will be coming soon check the WriteOnCon site frequently.
WriteOnCon is an exciting online writer’s conference for children’s writers everywhere!
A team of seven: Jamie Harrington, Elana Johnson, Casey McCormick, Shannon Messenger, Lisa and Laura Roecker, and Jen Stayrook started this project with a single goal: paying it forward. They'd all heard so many writers who wished they could attend a conference, but simply didn’t have the time or money. So they decided to bring a conference to them—a free online conference that anyone could attend in the convenience of their own homes. And so, WriteOnCon was born. (Rated MC-18: for main characters 18 and under.) I love this part!!!
The response from industry professionals has been overwhelming (check out our awesome list of presenters) and more presenters names will be added as people confirm. In the meantime, they suggest you mark your calendar for August 10-12, and tell your friends so they can be here too. They're working hard to make this the best conference they can, and it’s going to be—EPIC!

Thank you for the linkage! You are awesome. :)
This is going to be FABULOUS. What a brainchild they had!
I'm so excited about this, especially since I was bummed out that I couldn't get to SCBWI LA this year.
