Great conference! I particularly appreciated the information on PBs. Thanks.
Would of course LOVE to win a critique from any of these fabulous agents! And happy to donate. Thanks!
Thanks so much for making this conference available, especially for those of us who don’t have the opportunity to travel to the big conferences. The sessions and feedback in the forums have been spectacular — I’m very happy to send a donation to keep this going. Ready to put my nose down, ears back, for the season of writing ahead. Thanks!
I have just stumbled across a link to this conference from another website! I wish I had know about this before – what a great idea. This is full of very useful resources for emerging writer’s like myself. Thank you to the organisers for all your hard work. I have happily donated.
Thanks for everything!
It was a great conference – thank you so much! I wish I could give more. Perhaps after I’m published…
Thanks again!
This conference was invaluable. I appreciated the agent-specific tips, general industry knowledge, and author advice given throughout. Thanks for coordinating, and if you need any help next year, let me know!
Did my comment need to say I donated? I did, happily!
Invaluable conference hosted by some pretty fabulous ladies! Thanks for all that you do – seriously. What an amazing week it’s been!
This was an amazing experience and thank you all so much for all of the hard work and dedication. I am more than happy to donate; the chance to win one of these fabulous prizes is truly a cherry on top!
Cheapest and most convenient conference I’ve ever attended and as informative and inspiring as any.
My PayPal address isn’t exactly the same as the one I’m using here, but it’s close, and I’m pretty sure you’ll figure it out.
This is a smart addition to the conference.
Cheers to everyone participating!
